Default Re: Welding on hydraulic cylinder rod eyelet

I should have said that this is for the repair of an existing weld that I found cracked the other day. hard to describe without a photograph or sketch. more like a factory defect than a stress crack almost. maybe has been there for years I don't know but no way I want to go for a costly rebuild at this time. more for cosmetics and my peace of mind than anything else but only if safe to do this. should I tell the mig welder guy to forget it? should I find a tig welder guy instead?
