ok b*tches....
i did a little welding tonight b4 i go out....
i took the stock 4 bolt yoke from my np200 and welded it to the spacer to match up to the one i had made for my np205....
pics:
yoke to yoke
welds and setup:
they are not the best welds, but there is some penetration through 1/2" steel.....not bad i guess for a rookie

Damn thats nice. Welds look fine. In my experience its the pretty welds that fail. A row of dimes mean you were trying too hard....most of the time. Some guys are just that GD good....Im not one of those guys. Its also funny how just a little bit of rattle can black and some gold grade 8 bolts could make a turd look awesome.
PS...Im not calling your diaper a turd.
PPS...I dont think I can make mudfest. Ive got to go to Alabama for GD work.
