Daves69Coupe 10 Report post Posted May 9, 2012 Whats the best way to fix the part of the bucket where the springs for headlight mounting go. I tried welding but it looks the metals to thin to weld. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fordrevhead 29 Report post Posted May 10, 2012 Impossible to weld white metal or pot metal alloy. People have had some success with two part epoxys, JB Weld type stuff, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

six_sigma 12 Report post Posted May 10, 2012 I grabbed a small bulldog clip removed the handles and then flattened it. After that I took it to the bench grinder and ground a V into the top folded edge. The size of the clip fit right in to the original groove and the spring fit right into the v notch. A little MacGyver but it worked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
