ive bought a transit and one of the front wings need replacing (rust)

so im going to buy a spot weld drill bit to remove it, now when it comes to replacing it is there any rules against riviting in into place rather then rewelding it on?


cheers

No, it only needs to be fully seam welded if it's part of the chasis
