Re: Jeep Frame welding assistance please
One frame mount is on. I practiced with a some test steel to get the settings right on the welder. In the end used Hobart 7014 rods. I also bought a Everlast SuperUltra 205 3 in 1.

Re: Intro of a newbie knocking the rust off....
Thanks. Already finding the help I need and by reaching out to a few buddies locally have my hands on three welders at no cost to me. Most of the guys just haven't had time and are willing to know where to find them.

Re: Jeep Frame welding assistance please
Haven't done out of position welding but I was thinking a MIG might make the task easier. Sounds like the best thing for the out of position needs is practice. I don't have a MIG but was considering buying one for these types of issues. I finally got the jeep out to my shop yesterday which is about ...
