What welding forum do you post on? I'm going to chop the area that the ball joint mounts to off the end of my friend's Ranger control arm, weld in a 2 or 3" section of pipe to move the ball joint mount down to fix the angle of the arm.

(Right now it's lifted so much, the control arm is at an extreme angle and it actually rests on the frame.)

Would you recommend that I fill in the gap between the end of the arm and the pipe extension and then do a roll of dimes on top? Or just roll of dimes it over the gap?
