don't forget the arc welder for cracked frames.

speaking of which, i noticed a small crack in my frame near the rear suspension where the plate mounts to the frame..when i was up in WV I had it fixed and the guy who did it put a bead on the other side as well in the same spot just in case...
cost 15 bux not bad.

This welder works pretty good works off of two 12 volt batteries. I have seen them used on the rubicon . It will get you out of bad situation. Not pro quality welds ,but it works. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/ ... 114+765791

early x-mas gift huh. . . I find that to really get the gifts that I want I have to buy them for myself. . . wrap them and act surprised. . .
