I am very happy with my bolt on BF kit and this frame is very large and thick in the back - so plenty of strength (IMO).

This needs to be on your annual inspection - Checking for stress cracks on frame, around any holes you drilled or bad welds if you had it welded on.

You could always weld on reimforcement plates if you think you need them.
You can always tack weld the nut to the bolt but you would have to cut it to get it off. You have to check the reservoirs and li
nes annual anyway.. and you can check the bolts at the same time.
