Track bar brace

    Here is my first real use of my welder. I took 1/4 wall dom tubing and went from the frame to the bottom of my track bar bracket. This should assure the bracket shouldn't rip 😀



    Don't laugh at my wels either 😀 They may not be pretty, but I know they will hold 😏



    John, you will notice in the 1rst photo what a steering box brace looks like. It is made to prevent what happened to yours.

    Nice wels! 😀 (need less wire speed and more heat)

    Easy on the weld comments now. I was checking out some of your welds on your Jeep 😂 😂 😂 😂







    Just kidding, and thanks for the tip. I didn't have much room up where I was welding and had to do it with one had and on the passender side, I had to use my left hand. That sucked....



    I am still trying to figure my wire speed out. My welder is the one with auto set. It is supposed to set the wire speed for you, but on this job, I was trying to slow the feed down so I set it at a speed of 6 instead of auto.

    I was looking at the photo of my under carriage 😲 Looks like it is time to get the black paint out. It is starting to look like John's and we all know he is trailer trash 😂 😂 😂

    I was not really laughing at the welds....WAY better than my first ones and could be better than most of my current one. 😀 It was the "wels" that got the 😀
