Re: Arc welding cast iron with stainless steel rods?
Buy a new spindle assembly. I can't see welding suspension components, sounds like an accident waiting to happen. Then again I'm lazy.

Re: Acetylene
I once saw a guy have the torch handle blow up in his stomach. He got a burn about the size of a beer can. A few torch head brands have life time warranties. And its not to expensive to just replace the hole rig. Being cheap gets people hurt. I have never been paid enough to get hurt to make him rich.

Re: Starting out
I grew up in Nebraska and live in western Iowa now. A college diploma will take you farther in life the a welding job will! That said. depends on what part of the state you live in. the school in norfolk of Wayne I hear is a fair school.

Re: Plasma or Oxy Acet
Depends on what your cutting or may want to cut in the future. A plasma cutter will cut any thing a person would weld with a mig I would think a torch basically cuts steel. May want to look forward at possible projects you want do
