    No it is legal to weld, it was welded when new anyway.
    It is a replacable part anyway if you want to weld a new one in there, they are not that spendy, but more labor cutting the old one up and cleaning it up for the new one.

    I would replace and weld myself. I know it will be welded properly just wanted to make sure DOT wouldn’t have a issue

    No problem I have welded them right at the scales, when the DOT required it before they could leave.
