That looks SWEET! And what a great price. Question, what welder/weld settings do you guys run to weld this on? I have a little 110v Eastwood MIG. Wondering what settings might work for that (I'm still pretty new to welding)

 

technically your so-post to use nickel rod but i have never used it i just crank the welder up to a high voltage and slow the wire speed down and just tack a few spots. Then i just weld a inch then move to another spot and let it cool down, just don't get it to hot or you can worp the axle housing. I also use shielding gas to protect my weld, argon mix.

 

Looks nice man. I might need/ want one of those....haha

 

Not a problem man we can hook you up!!

We are making alot of these mini truss's so if anyone wants one please pm me and we can work on shipping one out to you or if your in the area we can set up a time to pick it up at the shop!!! plus see our shop!!!

 

That was my concern as well. I've been using CO2/Argon mix for the rust repair I've been doing. I'm definitely interested in one of these, I'm just not sure I'm ready for it at this stage of my project. I'll definitely pick one up from you the same time I get the 2x6. Also, got any Solid diff covers laying around?

How's the shop coming along? If ya'll ever need a hand with something I'm not too far off. Plus if you guys are trying to get a website together and something real official, I can definitely help out. Glad to see a shop coming together in the York area.

 

Thanks man, once we get a logo and all designed we will go through on a web site. no solid diff covers laying around haha i wish.... Il talk to Jamison when he is ordering the steel. We just got anther customer Jeep in. Its a Jeep TJ with some bad frame rot so we are plating the frame for the guy so it will pass inspection, here is a few pics.

 

Oh and we also have this project. This is my business partners and best friend's MJ. not sure on what axles he is going with yet maybe a ford 60 front 14 bolt rear or toyota axles (fj80) The pic your looking at is the 39.5 super swampers he just picked up. We will also be doing a bunch of tube work to the MJ.

 

Ouch. Rust is such a biotch around here. I've been fighting this...



Whilst working on this stuff, I also found that the one section of the unirail appears to have been plated at some point, which concerns me a bit but I am not afraid to tackle rust anymore lol

 

Rust is always a pain. Im very experienced with rust from being in restoration and working on very old cars everything is rusty.

 

That MJ is gonna be bada$$!

 

Hell yea, were going wild to put blue ribbon fab on the map.

 

I'm very new to it! I've had my XJ for almost a year now and have been determined to fix it right from the start. That picture there is exactly why I want to do the 2x6. I am patching the rocker though temporarily so I can get it inspected and have it road-worthy in case we see any snow.

Also I have my new lift kit, all I need now is a new track bar and lower arms, and then I'll hit you guys up!

 

For a track bar go a rock crawler track bar!! Its a double shear track bar best one you can bolt onto your jeep!!!

 

I'm down to that one or Clayton. I've also been considering the IRO bar. My main concern is I'm starting out with a 3" lift. Clayton reassured me theirs will work fine and RK says 3"-5" on their site. Not sure what I want to go with yet. Drew got a RK now doesn't he?

 

Yea Drew has a RK on his.
