    as for the tapping. has anyone ever tig welded the fittings after they have been tapped? the reputable 4x4 shop around here tig welds all his fittings. just wondering your thoughts.
    I would think some pipe dope would be ok, but tig'n them would probably be the tits

    just seems like a hassle. i mean the case is cast the fittings brass. can you do that?

    i did a bunch of research on my time off and found out the guys that are tig welding them in are tapping the cap of the box the cap is aluminum. they tig weld because they have to use a straight tap not the tapered one to avoid cracking the aluminum. then they tig weld it instead of using a o-ring.
