I am having some stress cracks welded up and inner/outer cab corners replaced and it looks like L bracket is only welded to the floor NOT the rear cab wall. Is the L shaped bracket attached to the inside rear cab mounts welded to BOTH the floor and the rear cab wall?

You may also have issues with the horizontal spot weld across the back panel at the bottom. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2015 Posts: 23 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2015 Posts: 23 | Thank you.....I do have problems with the horizontal spot welds as well. What is the best way to level before doing the corners? Do the back wall welds first?
