Although maybe u should have your legal team weigh in on this before u start telling the public where and how to put on there braces.
I got it....u could write them in Chinese! :beer:
Well for what it's worth when I sold the design to Xtreme I did include the installation instructions. If he is not including them with the product then the problem is with Xtreme. :beer:

If any of you guys have any questions about the SGT or GT brace kit feel free to contact me. I no longer have any financial interest in them but I do like to see people get the correct info about what they will do and how to install them. :beer:
Sam,

I appreciate your help. I did actually go to Xtreme's website and look for pictures of the install and none were to be found. They also did not include any instructions. All the install pictures I found on the web showed the bracket further back than the 1572 install. That is why I missed that hole. I still feel like a bone head for drilling those holes. Hey at least they were in the bracket and not the tractor!!

Guess I'll need to have a chat with Aaron about this. If any of you guys want a copy of the directions PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send them to you.

Off topic I got the fuel leak fixed today, new grommets for the tank, valve, and fuel line. Put it back together and figured a quick wash was in order.

They have to be CLEAN, that includes flushing out the crack with solvent to remove any oil/crud that is in there. 4043 will work as filler. That weld looks like a cold weld (low amperage) with no gas. go in there and clean it out, flush the area with brake cleaner and then use a propane torch to heat that area up, then flush it again. Now go after it with the TIG.
Bad plan using brake clean. Read this http://www2.worksafebc.com/i/posters/2013/ws_13_09.html
The stuff I use is a non-chlorinated version. Been using it for a long time. Have used the other as well, but I usually have a fume extractor and wear a respirator while dealing with aluminum welds. Cast has a LOT of crap in it. Normally I grind it out, then weld a couple passes, then grind that out and weld again. The first passes pull the crud out of the casting, then the grinding removes that and the next welds get put on the clean aluminum that is left from the first passes.
