It's just a threaded spud, you can use a long allen screw or cap bolt, use a jam nut to lock it down just past finger tight. It should hit the center of the caps, prevents them from moving rearward and getting broken or spit out.

Its simple to make... I lay it on the back with the same gap at each end then set my dividers to the gap then scribe the tubing keep your dividers square to the axle housing ..... DONT WELD IT ALL AT ONCE weld 1" sections and jump around so you dont bow the axle tubes
