I am coming along on MII install. My question is there is a small triangle steel brace that gets welded to the rear steel crossmember tube to the crossmember.
I have read this is a weak point or area of possible failure. Would it be better to make on that is the length of the steel sleeve, but elongated on the end that welds to the crossmember? Like 6" or so? I'm no engineer, maybe the one supplied is enough. Maybe the failed ones were not welded properly?
In the photo below, I'm talking about lengthening the side toward my thumb. Your thoughts? Am I worried about nothing here or overthinking it?
