HoopDog Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Hi all, One of the welds at the base of my poling platform on my 2011 HPX recently developed a crack all the way around. It looks like it had already been rewelded by the previous owner. Any suggestions on what I should do to remedy this would be appreciated. Thanks, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLDXT Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Take it off and reweld it. I've seen it happen a bunch, mostly on older MA. Only way to fix it is remove and have a good welded clean it up and reweld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLDXT Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 While it's off, have him go through all the welds, especially on the other legs, may save you some headaches in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
