What do you need weld?

and what type of welder are you using. I surely hope your not planning on using an arc, but it seems that way if you need to disconnect the battery.

will be using mig welder.

im guessing no matter what i should disconnect the battery ?

i just have to weld a small brace in the boot which is actually spot welded on but im just drilling the spot welds off the old one and just plug welding the new one on.

and i also have to weld the front drivers door middle hinge, it looks like it just located the door or somthing ? well the little mount on the chassis is half cracked. just needs a bit of a clean up and welding..

anyone know if anything can just get fryed from welding any part of the car ?

cheers

you should be safe.

alot of people have their exhausts and mounts welded whilst on the car
