I thought the "pumpkin" was the only thing that was cast iron on a Dana 30. I'm getting close to pulling the front axle and setting the caster and pinion angle. I know everybody says to use the "high nickle" rod, but if the yokes are steel, shouldn't I just use regular welding rod?
What's the best way to tell what's cast iron, and what is steel? I've been told that a magnet won't stick to cast iron. Is this 100%? Or is there something else that I should know.
I'm not welding the tubes at the pumkin, so I think this is just steel on steel. Moving the spring perches seems pretty straight forward. But I'm really perplexed with the yokes.....
