My main question relates to the welding of the wheel and carrier. Is there a logical reason? Should I even worry?
I have searched the forum but find nothing related to welding...

Hi guys, I am new here, just bought my first bevel. I have just got a 1978 Darmah, I am planning doing some work and I have noticed that it looks like the rear wheel has been welded up at the cush drive.
Does this sound right? Why would that have been done and is it safe?
it doesnt seem to effect ...
