    I bolted mine. Didn’t need to weld. Thru bolted from top thru bracket. Didn’t want to start a cabin fire, and it’s reversible. No issues and smooth shifting for thousands of miles. The bracket serves to hold rear of the linkage & I don’t think placement is crucial down to micro measurements. There was room to do it and test fit w trans in place
