Here's is the little skid plate I had at first. Sorriest weld I think I have ever done.
Here is the same joint that I went back over.
I went back over a couple other welds on it as well as added a couple others. Pretty solid now!

You can see with stick, I try to use a sort of S pattern. With MIG/FCAW, I do what I call overhand O's. I pass into the next O on the top/downstroke, hence the overhand name(I tried to simplify it kinda freehand there lol. Practice makes perfect! You do what you're comfortable with.

I've tried the sweeping method before and it didn't really feel right haha. Like Rich said whatever is most comfortable!

That's OK, I am just installing an old winch on it.
I do have cable and a hook for it as well.
PS, first time the ratchet from the 2016 Special Giveaway last year has made it into a teardown shot. It has proven to be helpful and rugged!. Thanks
@Doug and sponsors from last year.

Well I took advantage of last night's storms to ride the wash a few more times. I didn't ride over the rest of the land. Water was about a foot deep where I was riding. So long nice riding spot, You have been fun this year. They have been bulldozing the land. Not long I feel until this part is gone.VIDEO I didn't think of it when I was going back through, but my rear tires were starting to spin pretty bad and I tried to catch that. I should have hit it full throttle and seen the water fly!

I didn't get any video, or pictures, but it was some fun flat surface riding! I figured out the transaxle brake problem. One of the 2 bolts is stripped out. When I brake, instead of the bracket pushing the pad on the disk, the pad pushes the bracket out away from the disk.

I ran for a few months without brakes, at the time I could just disengage the electric clutch and use it as a bit of a brake. When I went to a normal pulley, I found out that I really do need brakes. Had to drill out the bolt(left hand bit), and then retap the hole. Managed to keep the original size hole too. You'll probably have to put in a helicoil though.
