Bud after seeing the quality of work you do on your truck , you no doubt have the skills , it all just practice , lots of it and help from those who have done it with technique . You can do it , I owe a lot to my good friend for helping me get the feel of it.

Yessir , we purge with argon to keep the pipe from "sugar-ing" on the inside.

Thanks

I'm not gloating or claim to be the best that's not me , but what I can say about welding is YOU MUST be comfortable when your doing it or you won't get the results you want . Make sure you are in a good position , the welds will turn out better than if your strained or your arm is trapped if ya know what I mean .
Also having a machine that operates well and quality of materials make a big difference . Thinner materials are a bitch to weld vs thicker for obvious reasons .
