nice, but it it was me, i would have had those tabs in the middle gusseted to a point further out in front. those welded up cracks are still a weak point and that bottom fin will tear or disform under large amounts of stress.
this is what i would have added..

Keep an eye on them, metal is never the same once its been stressed.

looks good but I dont think I would've reused those LCA's when you can get new ones for less then the price of that welding then gotten new tabs welded onto the new ones & maybe strenghtened up a bit. But yeah I wouldnt feel safe reusing the parts that broke once.
