Maybe, but it is possible to weld stainless with an arc. The guys do it at work all the time. Migs & Tigs are almost non-existant.

Here it is again from a different angle just prior to me pulling it out.

Stuff climate control. I dont muck around with it too much. Full cold or full hot is what I use.

Happy it can be done with one person.

This is what it came down to.
Crappy little spot welds. Going to be a beast when I get it fixed and reinforced.

Dangerous with the sparks and s**t. Plus if it has bent as well then you need some force to close the gap before welding.
Take it out and while its out get someone to reinforce it and make it tougher so that if you want a heavier clutch in it it wont break again.

Hey your in Warwick. If you need a hand while my memory is fresh give us a PM.
