I have had nothing but problems when welding to cast weather it is hight heat or whatever, with my mig. You can arc weld it with a rod spacificly for cast from what i have herd from multiple people. I just know from my experiance i have had my link tabs break of while riding down the road, I had it rewelded back on with alot alot of heat and it held untill i redid my rear frame.

same here. have done quite a few like that and haven't broken one yet.i think alot of people might be under the impression that its cast iron, when its really cast steel.

Yep, that's what they did with my spindles. Got them red hot, nickle rod, then buried in sand to cool.....
Not trying to hijack thread though......
