I've done it numerous times and was even "taught" if you would by an ASE tech. I've also welded and know many people who have done it to steering on they're wheeling rigs. Those rigs see way more abuse or presure on all components then any street truck will. Theres a right way to do it and a wrong way I guess.

Understood, guys; however, the average person needs to know that you never heat and reuse ball-joints, tie-rods, and other parts and pieces. I really didn't think about it until afterwards that the steering knuckle (aka spindle) can be modified, but it can't be done by the untrained person.
