A friend needs a patch job on a 98 Mack DM dunptruck. Its the plate on top of the Trunnion.I think that it was T1 steel they tried to patch with a A36. Is it possible to repatch it with another piece of A36? If so how does one weld A36 to T1. I know T1 requires preheat and post heat. Can anyone help with this?

I doubt A36 will work well. If you must weld it use an E80 or E90 rod or wire.
