How did that harbor freight welder work for you?
I have no welding experience and want to learn how.

 

It was from northern tools and was good for body work, but it broke so that's why I bought the Hobart. I will never look back...spend the money and get something nice

 

I 2nd that. get a good name brand welder. Hobart or Lincoln maybe. Save yourself tons of headaches

 

Hobart =/= good.

get a miller.

 

Well a nice 220v miller was 1200. The Hobart was 600 shipped. Ill stick with the Hobart haha

 

Here's some more of the rear in.



How do the welds look? I was almost burning through the axle tubes...

Oh and something may be missing...


There it is! Partially haha

Should be in place by the end of today

Oh and if anyone wants the D30 and 8.8 with the 33's let me know!

 

It's getting there...

 

This is one BA jeep

 

Looking good man!!!

 

Thanks guys! Waiting on some parts then the front should be done!

Oh and this is what I've decided I want to model my Jeep after

 

haha a HX those things a sickkkkkkkkkk

 

Got bondo on the drivers side rear and got most of the body work done on the passenger rear.

I'll post a pic of the drivers side when it gets light outside haha

Also, waiting on a special order from poly performance. Long arms maaaaaay be coming shortly. Really just depends how much tubing is left. Anyone know if I can use my rubicon express lca's and just cut the joints off and weld them on new tubing?

Oh and guess what I found under my jeep yesterday.

 

Well it's sitting on all four tires again, minus springs




Finally picked a color


^Can't really see it too well but it's AWESOME
Here's my welder turned up with gas. What do you guys think?

 

those are some VERY nice welds. i read through this build thread and i gotta say well done man.

 

Really nice welds man keep up the good work man looking foward to you complete build!!
