Phil, I'm not an engineer so the answer to that is a bit out of my league. I've never heard of a HS failure in the standard KR or any other structural failure for that matter. The 12 inch extention changes things though and they might stand a bit of re-inforcemet. Are you building a 2 or a 2S? If you are building a 2S I'd stick with the dimentions called for in the plans. If you are building a 2 I'd go with the dimention of the 2S and build it to the 2S plans. I'd not go bigger than the 2S plans. Hope that is of some help. Larry Flesner
