Chuck,
All you need to do is get an air cooled (17 or 26 series) torch with a gas valve built in and hook it up electrode negative and you can Tig weld anywhere your Ranger and a bottle of Argon can go. Welding in the field will require you to put up tarps to block the wind from blowing away your Argon most times. I use a power adapter that is made to hook up to the stud on the welder but just clamp it in the electrode holder for conveinence.

Just a couple welders and a couple of big hammers and torches.
