that frame side tb mount looks better in person
that being said I did have my buddy's dad check it out, he has been a welder/fabricator for over 35 years, he says they are fine, and more importantly, safe...
but he also made a few recommendations:
-stop using FLUX CORE... it is ugly and in the end it is expensive... however it is just as strong as gas, BUT it tends to splatter
-add a support bar that runs from the frame side TB mount to the other side of the frame
-add more gussets... no reason not too, as long as they clear every thing
-he also says I should try running just a hair more wire speed... not much but just a little more

I just cut the rear bracket to fit where the headliner fits, so no screws, but the front one is screwed on....I can put 6 poles up there...there is usually three of us in the rig

I replaced the non functional cigarette lighter socket (since i have a power inverter with 3 120v and 2 usb) with a switch for my electric radiator fan. Used a piece of stainless steel flashing from lowes.
