Alright, so... after a cut-n-turn procedure or if the C's were cut off to shorten a front axle, what are some tips for welding them back on?
Should you try to do one continuous bead around the axle tube? Should you do it in quarters alternating sides?
Are you trying to fill in the whole gap with one pass or should you plan on another pass? If you're doing two passes... does one bead go on top of the other? Or side by side?
Is pre-heating/post-heating necessary?
I'm using a Millermatic 175 and my axle is a D44 w/ 1/2" tubes, but hopefully this advise will work for others too.
Thanks,
Billy
