That glue is the way to go.

Not only is that an adhesive; it is also a seam sealer which is very important on rocker panels. It keeps the water out and causing premature failure of those parts. I just did some rockers on a 1991 5.0 and that’s the way it was done also. The particular one shown in the video also helps improve the tensile strength of the weld.
Made in America. You’re assuming a lot without knowing what you’re taking about. That’s what’s wrong with this country today – people jumping to wrong conclusions without knowing the facts. Rush Limbaugh has made a career out of catering to these people.
Looks like one of those Chines Resistance wlders made too look like a MIg. I don’t care if the chinese stuff is free it is not worth anything. Buy american guys, your not going to help the country buying that chinese stuff “cra@$%&p
I always thought you were NOT allowed to glue structural components on vehicles????
Thats not a MIG weld. Its definately a mig welding machine, but thats a different component to the standard mig welding hose..
Mig welder? Is that an attachment TO a mig welder? Looks like a resistance spot welder to me.
