    i prefer tig because i have been doing it so long its second nature. i just tend to reach for the power switch on my tig welder long before i reach for the one on my mig. and tig is more controlled all the way around.





    and bitches fucking love it. enough said hahahaha

    no no no eric... its kinda like drinking red bull... way overpriced compared to all the other drinks, but you finally understand why when you crack it open and it actually tastes good.

    Tig is harder to learn, bt once you do you have more control over the weld, its also less forgiving and doesn't splatter like mig.

    there are arguments as to whether tig is stronger. i am on the side that says yes.. you can determine how much heat to how much filler, how long you stay in one area, penetration... its all up to you with tig. mig is sortta point::: trigger::::: buzzzz:::

    steve,
    ive told you to come to my place and help out by drinking some beers while i weld. i do get parched and someone there to take the thirst away would be good hahahahaha.

    cr250jumper,
    i actually have a way to incorporate a uniball into the lower arms that you have on your truck right now. we would have to cut out the bj receiver and weld in a cup but i have the means to do that.

    what part are you guys wanting to see ? how i incorporated the stock spindle onto the lower uniball?

    matt,
    yes.. red bull is fucking delicious.

    ohh. the spindle adapter that i welded onto the spindle i had turned on a lathe. if you guys are interested in some i may be able to have more made if i still have the CAD drawing sitting around. for the both of them to be turned it was just under 100.00. let me see if i can locate the drawing and ill try and post a screen shot.

    Hmmm hacking up some Camburg arms? I like :D It would be a little bit down the road but once I get the rear done im game for that. It would probably be around spring/summer
