HWH Corporation does not suggest welding brackets to the frame rails. However, if any welding is done such as modifying a
jack bracket already mounted, the following precautions should be observed:
Connect welding ground to part being welded. NEVER weld to suspension parts such as spring shackles. NEVER weld across
the bottom flange of the frame rail. Brackets should be located near a cross member. For additional information on the vehicle,
Check with the chassis manufacturer for the most
recent information on welding precautions.
NOTE:
