I just didn't like the idea of my master cylinder being under the cab. My access panel will be covered with carpet and I don't want the hassle. In fact, I'm welding over the tranny access, battery cover basically everything in the cab.

As far as weldable nuts, there is such thing. I've used them extensively on this build. You can weld common nuts but you might breathe toxic fumes and they melt and are difficult to weld, I don't like to.
