weld up small hole in frame?
There is a small hole 1/2 inch in front under the radiator in the frame where the spare tire carrier used to be mounted. Will it hurt anything if I have it welded up? I've heard in the past that frames are tempered and are not suppose to be welded.

I assume the spare was up front because a large camper was on the back. I think frames are mild steel; IMO you won't change the temper much unless you immediately plunge it into ice water. Anyway I agree, weld it up.
