Hello!
I just subscribed to this group. Are discussions about welding appropriate
in this newsgroup? Just wondering. Thanks! -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Full Boar turbo mufflers Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors FRPP Clutch Kit |

There are just as many "experts" here as the other group. Analysis of the word expert: ex -an unknown quantity spurt - an uncontrollable drip I have welded for 30 years this month. Underwater. Stainless steel. In a habitat. I was a steel erection contractor for nine years. I don't consider myself an expert. I think an expert is one who knows all about it, can talk all day about it, but just can't do it. HTH Steve |

Well fine, you just get faster answers (and more to the point IMHO) to
WELDING questions on the other group. And of course, there is a lot of overlap on the two groups. Just to help the NEW GUY asking a SIMPLE question. Sheesh. And if you have another snappy answer to that, Double SHEESH! SteveB wrote: "RoyJ" wrote in message ink.net...

I like the blurb told here a week or two ago, guy said he knew a pipefitter who could strike an arc with one hand, while lighting a cigarette with the other, he'd have an inch of (perfect) bead down in the joint before putting away the lighter and flipping down the mask for a gander. Tim Ayup..the guy..my brother in law...was welding the brackets on my flag pole..and did just that..fascinating to watch. Gunner "I mean, when's the last time you heard of a college where the Young Republicans staged a "Sit In" to close down the Humanities building? On the flip side, how many sit in's were staged to close the ROTC building back in the '60's? Liberals stage protests, do civil disobedience, etc. Conservatives talk politely and try to work out a solution to problems through discourse until they believe that talking won't work... they they go home and open the gun cabinets. Pray things never get to the point where the conservatives decide that "civil disobedience" is the next step, because that's a very short route to "voting from the rooftops" Jeffrey Swartz, Misc.Survivalism |

Mike
A bit of advise from an old hot rodder. Spend your first money to make it stop and turn. If you have money left over then make it go fast. If you don't understand then look at all the wreaks in the scrapyard that could go fast and not stop. After that then you can buy a radio. lg no neat sig line wrote in message . com... Great, thanks.

I understand that pretty well actually. Subframe connectors & rear sway bar
from a 95 GT (much stiffer & not prone to breaking like the 98 rear sway bars are) really stiffened up the car for me. I am thinking about the GT Bullit suspension from FRPP... only about $400 & that's pretty damn good for what you get. I'm dying to do at *least* a Cobra brake upgrade. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Full Boar turbo mufflers Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors "larry g" wrote in message ...
