Welder needed

[Jeep450r]

In the near future, I plan on putting on plating my unibody from front to rear with something similar to these http://www.hdoffroadengineering.com/products/xj-frame-stiffener-set unless i feel like making them myself. However, I do not feel comfortable welding to the unibody (highly inexperienced welder here).

Is there anybody out there who would be willing to do such a job for me? I will pay you for the work.

I am located in Pleasanton

Thanks,

No need to pay (A roll of wire will suffice)... I am in San Leandro. Give me a call when you are ready... You do have to strip the unirails down to bare metal first, of course! PM me for my cell number.

Well I couldn't even think of welding to a frame. I only have a lil baby non-manly Miller 130. Which as you know if you ask around is good as a paper weight only. I mean you have to have a billy badass 220 machine to do that! (I'm laying it on pretty thick, don't take me seriously, lol)

Oh boy, let's not start this debate again!

little 110v welder sometimes do a lot better welding to the thin unibody. We picked up a cheap little Lincon 100 just for welding sheat metal, b/c none of the other welders had the adjustability for the much thinner stuff.

Good someones got you covered regardless. :gee:

Actually, the HD stiffeners are thinner than the TNT's and the unibody is certainly thin enough for a 130 amp welder. Yours would work fine for this job. I have a Lincoln 175HD which has a fine enough adjustment to avoid blowing through the Unibody on lower settings.

Maybe you guys missed what I was saying? I was kidding. Yes a 110 welder has done everything on my heep. For years, too.

Let's not go into the entire debate again, ok?
