Forgot how bad the underside of this was. I'm going to end up just cutting out that section of the sheet metal around that blade. I'll weld reinforcements on the back side of those two angle iron pieces I welded too much on, then I'll probably weld in some reinforcement gussets where the gearbox hump is instead of welding more sheet metal that's going to collect moisture and rust away again.

This spot has been repaired at least once before. I'll reinforce it now that I have the work piece standing up for access underneath.

These either WEREN'T factory welds, or the nuby was working that day. Pretty sure this has been repaired before though.
