generally speaking,
mig is colder than tig.
people typically refer to mig as being prone to crack because it didn't get enough heat in the base metal.
there have been plenty of frame brace kits migged in.

done properly any welding process will be just fine.

i used it as a slang term sorry.
typically sewing refers to a side to side movement.


you will be performing a fillet weld for that bracket.



you can drag or push it with a little side to side or just go in a straight line .either way will provide adequate penetration and look nice.
