mig vs tig welding
I ground the heads of the rivets attaching the primary gear to the clutch hub basket and have installed spacers behind the springs to hopefully eliminate the rattleing noise from the loose springs.It is now resting on my bench firmly clamped together.I am having problems locating someone with a tig welder ,but have found several with migs.What is the difference in strength between the two? Thinking of migging it back but if a tig is the only thing that will hold then the search must continue.also have had trouble finding an exploded view of this part as it is not a repairable part according to the Suzuki parts people.anybody ever see one?Tags: None

MIG should work I think although I don't understand why you can't find someone with TIG. Regarding an exploded diagram, I don't think it exists in the general public. http://www.theflyingbanana.com/clutchhub.htmEd

The only shops with a tig here are owned by companies that do not encourage 'small' jobs.it is business , several small places use migs for a variety of repairs. I did do the flying banana modification and would like to put the bike back together .A spring steel washer came out when the primary gear was separated and just was interested which way the convex turned.Does not seem to matter to me so it was with the tall inner section toward the steel that was decided. My progress is slow but steady!

also check machine shops, like hot rod / car machine shops they usally just charge by the hour and if they are big they should have a tig floating around somewhere.78 GS1000 Yosh replica racer project
