Do you think I am crazy wanting to weld up a K?
Best way is improve old new cars always Heck my new jeep has a 360 .Old old.
Thermal cooling?you would be welding to a high strength sheet metal (unibody) when you weld it will take all the hardness out along your weld leaving it very weak mild steel, it wont last long
Do you weld?No. You could stiffen the rails with a tube going from front frame to door post.
Not trying to weld just get wifey driving this car.I can stick two pieces together. If your a pro-welder you'll do OK.
Good soul there are not many of us left.Nice hemi singel btw.
So just have to wing it?you would be welding to a high strength sheet metal (unibody) when you weld it will take all the hardness out along your weld leaving it very weak mild steel, it wont last long
A stich has to be an inch.you can weld the k frame all day , wont hurt a thing, it's mild steel but high strength steel can not be heated it looses its internal structure making it mild steel and worthless for strength, spot welds and short stitches you can get away with to replace pieces but long welds turn it into garbage
