Hi guys,
I've got the axle C Gussets prepared to be welded on the front axle of my JK but my welder who is also a mechanic told me that I should buy 2 axle shaft seals because the High temperature required to weld on Forged Steel will damage them.
Could you guys who have done the welding or had it done for you confirm if this is necessary?
Also I know that in the write up the welder put some wet rags on the Ball joints to protect them from the heat but is it really sufficient as we are talking here extremely High temperatures.
