Does anyone know if i will have to take the nerf bar off to weld that? I really dont want to but i will if i have to. they were such a pain in the *** to get on.

I doubt you would have to take the nerf off to have it rewelded. It doesnt look like its in a hard spot to reach.

i thought maybe cause it was aluminum and it needs to be arc welded and we all know thats REAL HOT!

Bad welding caused that...too much heat. I would have it heli-arc so the other weld next to it doesn't flex and break. Have you welder put the bead on the bottom...underneath so you can't see it.

Thats a good idea man. I'm going to have him reinforce all the welds on the heel gaurds.
