Welding galvanized sucks, ask how I know, lol.
What are you planning to run for tires?
I took that drawing and made my first set of brackets from foam core art board and tape ,then just traced them on my steel plate and very slowly cut them out, then I stacked the pieces and tack welded them together and ground the edges all at once so they would match.
I hope you don't have to cut the mounts off the axle to make it work. I wonder if you had a bend just behind where the upper bar meets the bottom one, would it work better?
Either way , Go team Canada.

I plan on running 40" tires, im almost positive with some deep dish rims Id clear, but if I ever get a flat or something and have to throw back on the stock wheels, its gonna suck pretty bad lol. as for the bend, that's what a buddy of mine did right where the tire met the arm and he never had another issue, so that's an idea as well.

realistically though I wouldn't mind taking the axle out over winter and redoing them anyways. when welding them on I never really took the caster angle into consideration, being my first time and all lol. the top ball joints are straight up and down right now so id like to get them at that 7 degrees or whatever its supposed to be at to make right. time will tell though.
