Thanks Aren. Peening would be ideal for a part like this that gets a lot of action in one spot. I had all but forgotten about it! These cast aluminum repairs are very infrequent for my business. I appreciate the tips you gave!

Jeff Loffert Roger that. Will do

That’s a big help. Apparently there are more of these coming to me and they all broke in pretty much the same spot. So it looks like I’ll get some practice at this. I appreciate the help!

This was brought to me by a locksmith. First time with an cast aluminum repair. Should I use high amps and move quickly, or lower amps and progress at a normal travel speed? What settings would be generally recommended for such a small part made of cast aluminum? Also, I am using CK Lazer green tungsten with my Primeweld 325x. Any help would be highly appreciated!

I seem to recall that Jody has some good vids on using 7018 in 3G position. His ones on MIG vertical uphill got me lined out and well prepared for a weld test.
