Don't weld the bumper on bolt it with grade six bolts. Seen too many accidents I was called out on with welded rear bumpers that took out the driver. The frame bends under the cab and you get a blown out back. Much better to have it shear and crush vs transmitting the energy to your cab. Been there myself... hit 40mph at a dead stop but was rolling into the clutch for take off at the light. I was young and lucky the bumper was bolted on that truck. Sheared every bolt on the frame brackets. Saved my ass for sure.

The worst ones are welded trailer hitches. They leave on a stretcher most times.

Not welding bumper on.
Welding the brackets back together and gusseted.
It's all bolted together with factory bolts.
Ive worked on a couple cars in my day.

Good Evening Todd. Yes a good week, spring projects around here and at the church. Couple trees to cut at my brothers next week. Saws are ready.
Batten down the hatches buddy, hope the storm misses you.
Good morning Ray the storm is slightly higher now on it’s trajectory hopefully it’s just going to wing us I don’t think we will get a direct hit ,but they are unpredictable as we all know.Plenty of rain apparently coming in on the radar which is great because we need some of that .Hope your weekend is off to a great start.
