Leaf Spring Hanger Reinforcement/Tire Upgrade

I was talking to a local RV repair shop who says he has been welding supports on fifth wheel frames for years to reinforce the leaf spring hangers. He welds a piece of angle iron across the frame to each hanger on the outside of the hanger. He also welds this piece to the frame. I saw a couple of 5er`s he has done and it looks good. I thought I would have the Moryde X Factor piece installed on the center Moryde suspension and a wet bolt kit all around. Also will be replacing the Goodyear Marathon LRE with Goodyear G-614 RST LRG tires. Any thoughts on these upgrades?
