I know, that’s why I understand they are the way they are, lol. However, the welds on the bars should be tightened up a bit. Do your dipping closer together.
I’d definately believe… I’ve had to some serious welds in some seriously f’ed up positions… I’ve had to use mirriors to do some welds because I simply couldn’t get anything other than a mirrior, my mits, and a torch… (the back of a pipe close to a wall)
