My question is can I weld on the back brace with the whole unit assembled? Is their any special things I need to do ? I was going to try and go slow and jump around like you weld a quarter panel would this be Ok? Thanks 1969 Dodge Charger 1969 Dodge Superbee

Thanks Yes you can do it assembled and yes jump around when welding(no more than 1" in a spot... you might want to drain it if its in the car... jump side to side to keep it cool

Yes BUT if he gets it tooo hot it will flash and then you might have some problems... granted it shouldnt ever get that hot if done right
