Chime in if you've experienced the welding/ non welding of these laser-cut slots in the stiffening kits. Looks like these are just for break-bends, but the torch is hot now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
Thanks !  |

Is there any concern about moisture inside the slots? Also, if you make the trailing arms super strong and hit a curb or berm etc., that instead of the trailing arm bending (that is easily replaced) you will damage the chassis where the trailing arm is mounted? Just curious. Also, how does and old guy like you make such nice welds? I've about given up with my TIG machine because my hand ain't as steady as it once was.
