I thought about drilling a hole in my side plates to give access but since I had access I went ahead and just welded the nut to the back. Makes life easier when working under the truck during maintenance

And man it was really difficult getting my welding gun and my big fat head with helmet to see inside there to weld those dang nuts... When I finished up, I was thinking I should have just went to home depot for the right size hole saw and went that route instead lol. But I think this will be better in 4 years when I'm replacing my exhaust again because I think introducing carbon welds to that SS it might not last very long, at least that's what I am learning after all this work.... Whatever.... We shall see.
