Making my own rear strut brace
#6
Make 2 brackets which go on the top of the struts, and a bolt on I beam between them? Smile

No welding required Tongue easy as pie, and no weak spots.

Mig welding is fine, you won't warp anything unless you're using too much current. of course all welding creates heat and weak spots.

I'd stick to steel, when you weld alloys you need to use a feed wire which won't react with the alloy and weaken the joint over time.
A moments silence please, for our brothers in the NAD-zone.
