Busted Control Arm
Axle:
I could, but I don't want to do that unless I absolutely have too. The reason they are designed to fail first is to prevent me from breaking my axle or frame. If there is too much stress on the control arm, I could rip it off of the axle or frame, causing some serious damage. Welding one side is ok, but if both sides go, then it's time for a new control arm.

See, your rubbing off on me J. Now I'm speaking Nuke! ;D
HOT-ROD:
ok, so im guessing that you can wheel it.
keeoing in mind that getting the new axle on, welding both sides, might hinder adjustments for proper and safe set up.
