your enemies. It messes with their heads.It doesn't take a very big person to carry a grudge. :wq!
I have been thinking about fixes and have a couple in mind.
1.) Cut beam again and reweld in the right way. 2.) Cut stop off and weld to the bottom where it belongs. 3.) Do nothing and just tighten the lock nut down enough to lock it in place.I really think #1 is the only safe answer. #2 is doable, but not sure of the strength afterward.
How much tension will be on the springs? I suspect a lot.
