Sorry, got a small question. Are you doing mig with gas or flux core? Do you weld different depending on the area or part or what you are able to afford or what's easier? Again, thanks for the awesome video.

Usually it's done when building a hopper you cut the center crossmember of the frame along the top and the front and rear and stretch it open then add a plate of steel in the opening it changes the geometry of the springs and cylinders also makes the bottome of the crossmember a little higher to help from bottoming out
