Definitely add a rosette on the tube ends.

You can still drill through the tube just don't go all the way through the insert.

Next time tack them up. Until everything is installed and verified they shouldn't be welded.


BTW, Where is the weld ****??? All I see is a horror show...

Haven't had much time to work on it much but I did buy a third member with 4.11 gears and I got shipping confirmation that the wheels shipped today from Champion after the bead locks were installed. The other day I was told two weeks out so pretty excited they are shipping.. Now I have a lot of motivation to do this lol.

... Time to get to work!!
