The bucket on my MF 165 front end loader has cracks in it where the brackets for the arms attach to the bucket. I'm a real amateur when it comes to welding but I do have access to a stick welder. Since the bucket is hardened steel I'm not sure about what welding rod to use to get good penetration. Any advice on type of rod to use and the procedure to do the repair would be appreciated.
