I would say that you are going to find some due to the type of metal and welding process. My 18 was far more than I was willing to accept as it looked like swiss cheese with 85 percent of its weld having large amounts of slag. My 19 has cleaner welds with far less porosity. No porosity is good (I would never allow it on my own welding projects but in mass production there is going to be some. Slag...should be addressed at frame factory before electroplating. All it takes is a wire brush wheel and a drill. I would say my 19 has 95 percent less slag than my 18. I think its the best I am going to get.So basically all new JL's have some porosity, and the jeep you had with the issues was over and above the accepted level or standards.....
