After about 10k miles or so, the weld will break. Welding it is a waste of time and you will be pulling it again. Get a new arm and pedal from the dealer. It's cheap and you won't have to worry about it for another 100k miles. I don't understand why people are always so against just doing it the right way and replacing the worn parts...

I have to disagree. I have a 90 AWD that I put in a ACT 2600 clutch and welded the pedal assm. I've put over 60K on that assm, with the car now having 200K on it. No failed weld.

There are probably, at a minimum, 100 people on here that have done the same procedure and have over 10K on them.
