Has anyone tried building up the metal like on the 70 hubs by welding? I hear so many people crying how thin the later hubs are. Any ideas on if this would work or not?

Why, just machine flat the surface where the stud mounts for the 5 bolt pattern and then after drilling the proper size hole, press in the studs. Lots of metal for that.
