That is backwards. Cold rags are bad. You want the metal to cool as slow as possible. Rapid cooling results in more deformation in the base metal. That is why you want to wrap in some sort of insulation.
There is a balance here with heat. If you are not putting enough heat into the axle for proper fusion, it is worthless to weld the truss on.
