I've found a tiny crack in my rear subframe, almost certainly caused by an impact with a curb several months ago.:(

I think it needs to be welded to stop it spreading any further. I haven't a clue about welding as I have never had any of it done before.

Replacement of the part I [b]really[/b] don't want to do as it require removal of the clamshell, entire exhaust system, entire rear suspension, brake lines, gearbox, driveshafts and engine removal. :o

A couple of pics of it...

Are any local PH'ers able to weld and think they could help me out with this? A few pints in it for anyone who can, I don't think it'd take very long to do.

Just looked in GG - galvanised steel - OK.

I'll ask him & drop you a mail with the response.
