I say this not to hate but that transfer from your stock clip to 2x3 and notch is suspect... Just do a miter cut instead of that... Not saying the welding is bad but that has stress riser written all over it..

that transfer is more than beefy enough it is plated to hell and back, i could have cut all plates to shape and just used that with no 2x3 inside of it and still would be fine. and the angles of the notch left more thick wall metal to weld to than a higher degree angle butted together and is also plated to everything on here is pretty much an overkill for this little truck.
