Title: welding help needed in buford
Post by: Fumbles on December 31, 2013, 12:54:46 PM

So I got a clayton long arm kit for the jeep... I have a shop to work in... but have 0 welding skills. I can tear it all down and prep everything just need a couple of hours worth of welding. I have cash in hand, beers in fridge, and can do some services on your vehicle if wanted( tire balancing, fluid exchanges, alignments,all on a lift so no layin on your back) I will provide a 220v mig with gas and all tools needed

id like to try and do this within the next few weeks(sundays are best)

Whats a beer and lunch of choice?

What welder do you have? I might can help you out, if not I might have a XJ guy who is a professional welder/ pipe fitter that could and is closer.

Dont we all!!! Not this coming sunday but the following sunday.

Function over form mostly! But no buggers haha

I have the tools and can do most of it... its just the lack of welding skills and the fact that this lift needs a lot of welding done is what kills me

let me know how much your buddy would charge to help out as well...

I was wonder.. when getting an aftermarket cat back.. for installation no welding is needed right?  You would only need welding if your going for a custom pipe diameter from the down pipe to the cat. converter?  Im unsure but if no welding is needed to install the cat then I might aswell install it myself.  HAHA low on money for installation.. but kinda happy I can do it my self.
By the way, the best program for marketing and SEO for me - is a XRumer 12.0.9 Elite + SocPlugin :)
