AllTorque Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Is the replacement whiteline as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 Is this section only for brake parts? Is there a separate section for suspension modification/weldy weldy?I would say they go hand in hand and suspension is considered part of the braking system. Is the replacement whiteline as well?I believe it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 the requirements for welding of a suspension are in the hobby car manual. the way i read it, rear suspension parts can be mig welded and it doesnt require crack testing. there are 2 different classifications in the book for welding- critical and non critical. critical is tig/crack test, non critical can be tig/mig/arc and no crack test needed page 6-33 in the HCM has the relevant rule 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testament Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 The shape of most car parts makes mpi the only practical ndt method. While mpi won't show up inclusions its not usually as big an issue as pipe welding due to how the parts are loaded and how they are likely to show signs of failure in service. The visual inspection should be able to check for missed edges and penetration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal220 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Good read, I pick up my adjustable panhard rod next week. Will have a better idea what to look for after reading this. Your wag looks badss by the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal220 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I may have a set of rear fender extentions for you if you are interested? I have two sets at different lengths (both mint). I am keeping one set for me but am happy to donate the others to a cause as worthy as the wag. If you want em just measure up from your bumper to the wheel arch. I was told that one set was sedan and the other wag...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaMpylobacter Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 are you still rollin' mitsi spec stem seals? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 are you still rollin' mitsi spec stem seals? Ooooh hell yeah. I figured out when I ripped the heads off for the BHG that its actually the bore not stem seals. But didn't/still don't have the funds to give it a rebuild so just rolling with what I've got and smokey the bandit I shall be. I suspect a piston was BDC on one cylinder and it was lying on it's side with a lung full of water in there for a bit longer than necessary. It has a reasonable amount of pitting with a tide mark in that one cylinder and a little bit in a couple others on the same side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 should hold together and they're still pumping oil out of the ground so no worries (so long as you've got a decent boot seal hah) at least that's what i'm telling myself with my fucked citroen valve guides hahah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
