Im sure somebody will argue that u can weld steel to cast, but ive heard its very tricky and not very recommended, so try if u dare, but dont say u werent warned!!! Simply put, weld steel to steel and ur all good!!!

Oh yeah the FBI or the suicide doors one is. I just am not sure if I would trust the factory one! And what he says bout cast is true. You CAN weld it but not good at all. You could put A hoop or loop or what ever to join the axle tubes to make a spot for the 4 link to weld to.
