Weld on exhaust tip question
I just bought a SS exhaust tip that I will need to weld on the tail pipe. Do I need to disconnect the battery before I start welding (wire welder) so I don't fry the computer(s)...or is that even an issue. Thanks.

Re: Weld on exhaust tip question
i dont think it will hurt anything, i have welded on several vehicles and never had any issues. if any one out there thinks there could be a problem chime in any time. but i dont think welding is going to do anything to the vehicle as long as the welder is grounded solid near the welding area.

Re: Weld on exhaust tip question
Okay how scary is it that you will be operating a welder and you would ask a question like that. How on earth could welding a tip onto the tailpipe have anything to do with affecting the electronics of your truck..To confirm your suspicions, ummmmmmmm no disconnecting battery not necessary, just wear safety glasses and a long sleeve shirt at least.
