Thanks for tips:

In terms of prep and process please give furher guidance.

Can I weld all in place on tractor or do I need to take axle off?

Do I need to heat up the area to be welded? How warm

Should I grind a weld groove or just surface weld?

Thanks for tip on small beads, will do and spread out to prevent distortion.

What amperage are we talking on a stick welder for 7018 rod for this task. ( done enough welding to know what I'm doing, just not so much on cast metal) How about nickel rods ( never used)

Any other pointers?

Cheers
