Why did you need to weld in the bearing races? I'm assuming those roller bearings have something to with it?

the reason i welded inside on the races is because there is no way to get the bearing raced out of the hub....welding inside (esp with a tig and no rod) heats the metal up super fast...it magically allows the old crap races to just fall right out...if not they move enough to get a punch to knock them out...

I also weld two little "ears" on the ring in case I need to use a punch. Just did this last week, actually.
