Looking for advice on repairing the tube that the loader bucket hydraulic ram attaches to. Left side is sold but right side has torn 70%. Neighbour tried welding with 7018 but it has reopened. One of the bucket pins was broken by the previous owner which was the original stresser. So I was thinking of cleaning things up and redoing the weld and then on top running the full width welding good quality angle iron with the two edges on the tube, so two weld lines for additional strength. Or is it better to fabricate a new tube and re-weld everything to the new tube? Anyone had the same misfortune? Any help would be appreciated, thanks Kubota BX25 with LA240 loader
