Blocking damper rod hole tube - MIG?
Can anyone tell me what material the curvy damper tubes are made from and whether there is any reason why they couldn't be MIG welded rather than brazed?
Cheers.... |

Re: Curvy damper tube - MIG?
Isn't braze easier to file and shape if you're blanking off the hole?
Mig could be a pig

Re: Curvy damper tube - MIG?
I'd love to know how much difference that hole makes - seeming as I didnt block mine up (no access to welder or anything).

Well you can always use a good epoxy glue.
The blanking of is to allow the emulator to do its job and control oil flow.
