[QUOTE="Maverick26, post: 1438962, member: 18044"] Flux core wire, in the hands of a skilled operator, is used some times for structural welding and is not a "bad" way to do things. Its just not all that clean like when you use a shield gas. Just dont use solid wire without gas, I asure you that those welds are not strong. I had a porous weld on my buggy rear axle link mount that I thought at the time would be just fine... it ended up costing me a night of wheelin at the hammers. Leave nothing to compermise... I know that this is not a major part of your rig and if it fell off that you probably would not even notice tell you got home but... I no longer half ass anything... I cant really explain the imbarrassment of calling myself a fabricator and having my **** fall apart. :looser: [/QUOTE]
