To strengthen the frame, I decided to fabricate gussets.
Cutting out the gussets.
A-arm bracket is welded, and gusset is welded on the other side.
Gussets ready to be welded to the frame.
Finished welding this gusset in place. Not too bad for an old stick welder!
This is the welded gusset on the other a-arm.
A few more welds, the frame is almost ready for the suspension.
