Default welding sub frame connectors

Does it matter which type of welding we use? Mig or tank? Thanks

What are you refering to as "tank" welding? I welded mine in with a 125 mig with some 030 solid core wire and i use gas if thats what you mean because of the solid core wire. But you could weld em with a mig and flux wire without gas

Talking sub frame con

you want to use mig welding..clean the surface with a sander. argon or flux type is fine.....also electric or stick type welding is fine. flux coated rods like contractors use. tank or gas or atcetlene type with a torch shoul not be used. to much heat spread.............RON..........THE WELDER
