Welds

BLTJeep · 2013-06-07T07:09:40-07:00

Who does welding? I have 2 small jobs in need of welds... 1) Body mount on the TJ under Pass. Door is sitting in the garage. It fell off when I loosened the bolt to put the sliders on... Factory Welds were poo 2) Shift Lever to Shift Shaft on an old XR350, The outer 3/4 inch of the shaft broke off years ago, shop wants $600 to replace the shaft, or he said to weld in on... I can come to you, or you can come to Beautiful Pollock Pines for a BBQ and play with RC trucks on a cool course afterwards. My shop has a 220 Welder Plug under the breaker Box. I bought a little wire feed welder years ago (110V) and have tried to do the shift lever, but it doesn't get hot enough for the shaft. Needs a good ole stick weld which I do not have (and never really learned how to do). Also, NO RUSH!!! Both have been like this for over a year. I just want to clean up some things off the "To Do" list... Thanks, Brian

Today is not good, plus, the Jeep is still on Jackstands until I get the ARB put back together... Last of the parts came in yesterday, so I will be under it this weekend finishing it up...

Schools out now, but I have one more week of cleanup around campus then I will be free most every day. I will get ahold of you to set something up 🙂

Thanks,

Brian
