Im looking at a new welder. has any one ran a miller 211? I do like the fact that it can be ran on 110 or 220. then I might be selling my fire power 120.

The dual voltage machines weld good on 220 but 110 is a last resort and it welds but not as clean and can only use the lower amps
And if you want to save some cash look at Hobart. miller makes them and they are great I have the 250 amp ironman 230 and love that machine and my tig is a Hobart 165

Then put .023 wire in the 120 and keep it for a sheet metal welder like it was designed to be

That's crazy! But I'm back home today and hopefully gonna get some work done on my bumper!

so I played with the new welder the last couple of nights I hooked it into the 220 and its incredable. on a side note I know very little about 110 and 220 power, so the power cord i built about 10 years ago had the ground where a hot was suspost to be, IDK but it has ran compressers and my stick welder.I guess Im probly lucky I havnt gotten eletricuited or burned any thing down or up.

They are a nite and day difference in the power department and reliability is way better also. I kinda wish I would have kept my last 95. It seamed to me to have more power then ether of my 99's and was just as nice.

"Selling a complete drum to drum Toyota IFS rear axle"

 

[SPECFab]

looks fine to me whats wrong with it ifs rear ends are wider than strait axle rear ends

 

[Demonoid369]

ifs-Independent.Front Suspension..... lol would have been smarter with i.r.s.?

 

[kenny811]

If your Toyota came factory with IFS it has an IFS rear axle housing, if it came facorty with a solid axle in the front, then the rear axle housing is shorter. My 90 Toyota had factory IFS but now has a solid axle, to make it right I added wheel spacers to the front so its now as wide as the IFS rear.

Take note Larry, there will be a test on this.

 

[Demonoid369]

imma fail that test then lmao, I'm more less confused with IFS... since the middle initial stands for Front......? how do you have a independent FRONT suspension on a rear axle?!?!? lol makes no sense to me lol

 

[Mnkyboy]

People say solid or IFS when talking yotas to distinguish what era of truck they are talking about because the suspension ran though a couple generations. This means you can have two trucks with the same body but one IFS and one solid axle.

Its like when we say Renix or HO when talking about XJs even though we are not always discussing the engine or when you say you have a late model.It just lets people know what era XJ your talking about.

hey i learned something new :gee: :clap:
that helped sort a lot of confusion lol
random thought process completed!
