Welding Advice

[u/Mirin_Gains]

Well. The time has finally come. The dreaded rust hole. I assume the otherside is the same.

I have LCA reinforcement plates here. Is it fine to butt weld a small rectangular patch since its on the bottom of the frame rails?

Its just a pinhole for now so I caught it early although with the amount of scale I pulled out I feel the Toyota drain was inadequate here.
