Agreed, as someone who has taken welding and fabrication classes, I still wouldn’t do suspension work, but I may have more skills and experience than some of the builders out there

If you don't know exactly what to look for when welding AND after welding ( in addition to the proper heat range at set up) you can put down a "good" looking weld that is the equivalent of elmer's glue.
