QUOTE(neosaint99 @ Feb 22 2009, 12:53 PM) i see the pic he only welded a flat plate for your anti-roll bar wow bro this really usefull since i got 1 2nd hand antiroll bar havent done the welding yet... bcz heard will easy break if welding nt goodthis is a point that will be subjected to consistent fatigue (i.e. the anti-roll bar will keep trying to bend it up and down as you take corners...so the joint actually gets "tired" in a sense) a flat plate welded to the frame will definitely eventually break along the weld as that is the most brittle part (weakest link) when welding for these kind of applications, you need to triangulate the anchor point so what the guy should do is weld the flat plate to the frame, then add in atleast 1 (two would be better) triangles perpendicular to the plate to support the bending force that the anti-roll bar will induce on that plate please refer to picture below for illustration: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(neosaint99 @ Feb 22 2009, 02:47 PM) u ask the shop to do like this sure they will make noise and say no need etc err btw exhaust shop geh welding is belong to which type of welding geh? gas?just stick to your guns after all, not hard to do wut...and cost wise practically no diff but most shops lazy if can get a shop with MIG welding much better finish, and less thermal damage to the area arc welding isnt as good...so so lor... if they 1 2 use gas welding tell them go fly kites...that will soften the whole area around the weld (check out anealing if 1 2 know more) actually, now that i think about it, if want to make it easy, take a 1inch or 1.5inch flat bar and 90degree bend it into a U shape.... grind off the two exposed edges and then weld along the whole line and kautim! that might actually be better than adding on the triangulation pieces |

QUOTE(neosaint99 @ Feb 22 2009, 03:20 PM) diff shop diff the better shops will have MIG so far saw 1 shop that had TIG (this is the best!) most will have arc welding some of the lauya el-cheapo shops will still be using gas MIG welding is that thing where they hold like a gun that has a trigger then its attached to a metal box with dials n stuff on it that needs to be pluged into a power point the welding material is fed by the machine through the handle continuously from a roll in the box arc welding is the one where they clip the welding rod into the handle then weld and have to keep replacing the welding rod as it finishes gas welding sure know rite? |

QUOTE(neosaint99 @ Feb 22 2009, 04:03 PM) ya sumthing like that lor gas welding means got two big cylinders then got a visible flame nev let them use gas welding on your car surrounding metal will rust very fast as your undercoat dip layer will be burnt off and the metulargy of your metal will be changed |
