It's not all together yet. I'm cutting the truss tomorrow, and may scallop the edge attaching to the axle tubes... 1" weld, then 1" scalloped space, then 1" weld, etc. From what I understand solid welding could crack the entire length of the weld. whereas if it's 1"weld only that inch would crack... in theory. Also less heat to the tubes. I'd really like to be wheelable by next weekend's Desert race.... we'll see!!!!
