How much difference in "ride quality" is there using bushings vs just welding tube to frame? Am I making a mistake by not using bushings? 1992 one ton YJ that sees a lot of local driving on the street. Thanks.

disclaimer: a jeep may behave different since it's short with a boxed frame but I still wouldn't do it.

sandwich plates, or cutting holes through the tub to weld the cage to the frame...
