  1. I've just got a cheap Eastwood 110v MIG welder. That with a bottle, cart, gloves and a helmet was all of ~$600. One of the 4x4 magazines said Eastwood had the best welder under $300 (a few years ago). I've used some big, nice ones before, and this sucker will do anything I need it to. Good products.
  2. Finally got the front armor done. Nothing underneath yet.
  3. Yeah, you definitely don't go in from the back. Can't remember exactly but it's from the top or through the front, around the trim piece.
  4. I have this one from Eastwood (great company). It's $340 http://www.eastwood.com/mig-welder-110vac-135a-output.html Got it with the plasma cutter and cart and some other goodies. I was like you a few years ago. Wanted to learn, took some classes at a local artists studio, now it's all I ever want to do in my free time.
  5. How does one decide weather or not to run a pre-cleaner like New4x4r? Any of you with the "typical" snorkle top worry about water getting in there and soaking the stock filter when it's raining? Very curious.
  6. 'El Cheapo Manny Hubs Installed. Several days of rust penetrator did the trick. Old hub slid right off.
  7. All I came up with was his reference here but no post:
  8. Thanks DW. Yeah, weird. I buttoned it back up and got some of the WD 40 penetrating stuff and will soak it multiple times until the weekend. Hope Saturday I can tackle this again. FWIW, the pass dust cap had a small crack in it. Maybe that was enough. I swear If I can't get it off after soaking I'm going to cut it off with an angle grinder...
  9. Total abject failure this evening. Home from work early, decide to tackle this...two hours later, still didn't have the first hub off. Decide to pop the dust cap off the 2nd side and noticed quite the difference. PASS SIDE DRIVER'S SIDE (my headache) I could not get the driver's side off at all. It's stuck (rusted) to the axle something fierce. Ideas? Does it look like my passenger side install will go smoothly? So frustrated.
