im working on adding some extra bracing to my dana 30 so far i have boxed in the passenger side uca mount and boxed in both lca mounts
ideally i would like to add a truss but my fab skills are not good enough yet to build one and i dont wanna dish out the money to buy one right now
so here is my question
would it be worth it to weld the tubes to the diff like you would do on a ford 8.8 if so what is the proper process using a arc welder? do i need to heat the diff up first and use a special rod?
also i was bored and made this out of some scrap just sitting in the garage and was wondering if by adding it would i gain any kind of strength from it or should i just toss it
any input/ additional ideas or pictures of what you have done are appreciated
p.s. i tried posting this in the fab section but im not allowed to so hopefully i can get some response here
thanks
