thanks man. whats the build date on the driver door?

 

bumper is mounted with the stock holes on the side of the frame and a bolt on each side on the bottom back of the frame. i can snap some pics if you'd like.

pics would be cool, but don't go out of your way. mine doesnt have rear bumper on there and i want to build something something similar to yours. ive only got an oxy/act setup to weld with though, so i gotta practice some first, only used to welding smaller gauge stuff on bikes.

 

build date on mine is 10/91. dude i got it from says its an eliminator but I'm waiting on the build sheet from chrysler to confirm, I'm not sure it is. 4.OL HO, 5spd, 4X4, shortbed.

i will snap some pics. OA welding might be tricky with thick metal too. i never tried welding thick stuff with OA but i can imagine its pretty hard to lay a good weld.

 

OA welding is a little rough on thick metal, especialy if your welding thick to thin. Before you do anything i would take a couple pieces the same size and material of what i was going to weld and practice. then whe you actually go to weld everything keep plenty of vice grips around and a good welding hammer. it also really helps to get a good grinder with a cut off blade on it. if you mess up a weld just smoothe it out and go over it. also make sure you throw heat more toward the thicker metal if necesarry. oh! and of course good glasses are a must, and don't go too dark with the glasses. you need protection but you also need to see. number four or five is acceptable, not 9 or ten :thumbsup:

well looks like a new t-case and t-case skid is in my future...

 

 

DON'T buy a transfercase.

 

I have one for you. don't have a skid, though.

 

ya i was going to call you about the t-case. i will be making a t-case skid.
