i had to spot weld the whole thing. let it puddle up on the rock rail side until it runs into the sheet metal then let off, move, do it again,
oh and that is one of the hardest things to weld on an xj welding 3/16 to sheet metal that thin, and the sheet metal is galvanized too so as long as you weld the whole thing itll be good. they probably wont look pretty
