Adding the strap was simple and made the job. Great and safe work.

Such critical welds should never be run downhill. It is a must to wrap the ends of D- Ring brackets when welding. Under high loads, the brackets will tear off like a zipper. Gas shielded fluxcore would be a much better choice. Fortunately, the metal in this hitch isn't very thick.

Your overhead Mig is solid. Any tips you can give?

@guzzifabrication3448 10 месяцев назад

Practice on different thicknesses of metal and write down the best settings for each particular pieces of metal on tape and put that on top of your welder that will help tremendously and a good ground always and a lot of practice

@mfmcdoobierecords6405 11 месяцев назад

This is exactly what I needed to see. Same exact c channel I’m working with. I will install exactly as shown in the video. The hitch I bought is 12” long, with a rated weight of 5000lbs. How many lbs do you estimate you can tow with this installation?

@guzzifabrication3448 11 месяцев назад

I don't recall what this hitch was rated at, but I'd be confident this method would exceed your 5000lbs hitch.

@zarthstar 2 года назад

Can you publish the welder setting you used? Amp and wirespeed in particular.

@guzzifabrication3448 2 года назад

I'm using a Lincoln 256, every welder is different I can give you a range 250 - 270 WFS / 19 - 20 V, on the inside door of your welder there should be a settings chart. Thanks for watching !

@Ed_Row_Feez 2 года назад

I wouldn’t try it unless your machine can achieve spray transfer and you can make a quality penetrating weld. Test your settings on scrap of similar thickness and cut and etch to make sure you are penetrating. Safer route would be to use 7018 and burn it in with multiple passes

@maximus01152891 3 месяца назад

Thanks for video, how much this project cost?

@guzzifabrication3448 3 месяца назад

Thanks !!

@tylernewton7947 Год назад

Is this a job that could be done with a flux core welder? Or would you only suggest MIG? I'm just getting into this stuff and could use some advice, flux core seems to be the one that would suit me best with pricing and everything but I would also like to work on my truck like this. Very good work, very professional!

@guzzifabrication3448 Год назад

The key is penetration, just follow the formula 1. prep 2. good fit up 3. correct machine setting and good penetration into the parts. Thanks for watching !

@@guzzifabrication3448 Thank you! I'm very motivated to start learning, I'm gonna picking up the Forney Easy Weld 140 FC-i welder this week and start on some home projects!

@sagennc9019 Год назад

Well also depends on how much power you got ,like a 110 miiiiiiiight get it done but it's gonna be turned all the way up

@shelltoe_soul 9 месяцев назад

@@sagennc9019 yeah I wouldn't recommend doing this with a 110/120. You really need 220/240 to get enough penetration in steel this thick. You might be able to stick weld but I wouldn't trust it.
