Welding front spring hangers

Postby hendsford » Sat Apr 09, 2022 4:50 pm

Well..... I had my front spring hangers 'repaired' by a local welder as they had a couple of holes around the centre of the hangers. He made a plate the same shape as the whole of the hanger and welded it to the exisiting hanger. You can still see the holes if you look from the inside but it fully plated. Will this be ok for MOT having only been welded on one side ?.

And if it is ok can I fill the holes with filler on the side their visible to make it look better?.

Structurally, I can jack the van up just using one of the hangers with no problem so it's structurally sound I think.

All help greatfully received

cheers,

Tony
