    Filling small holes without welding

    I measured mine at .043 .....which is 19 ga. Its hard enough to buff a pop can let alone patch one with heat involved. Only thinner steel I ever messed with was a shop I worked at that stamped Honduh rear quarters, which was 22 ga (<.030). We had the presses turned down as low as they would...

    Filling small holes without welding

    I used a stud welder. Stud is tapered on the end - 1/16 to 3/16. Holes are 1/8 (2/16). Set the stud in the hole and lit it up. Snipped the stem, ground the nub down. Nice little welded copper plugs. Still have 2 large holes on the firewall - ground down some fender washers to make perfect...

    Recon LED Cab Light Kit (NIB)

    Another leftover find - they are listed as for a 2003-2015 Dodge Ram, but would work on anything really. Never used - I pulled one out to size it up and to make sure everything was there (it is). They look awesome but I have no use for them. Can buy them just as new HERE Asking $75 SHIPPED to...

    Filling small holes without welding

    My friend had a sugar issue. Would crash and he'd pass out. Happened at the wrong time when an electrical socket in his bedroom (original wiring - 1946) started to burn. No bad fire but lots of smoke. Thats what killed him. Didn't help he smoked like a train so his lungs were already...

    Filling small holes without welding

    A friend of mine came by about a year ago - he'd been welding 40+yrs - and couldn't stop from turning small holes into bigger ones on the firewall using a Miller 110 welder I had - found out later the welder's wiring was bad so he (apparently) couldn't turn it down enough. He died in a house...

    Filling small holes without welding

    I know the few articles I've seen on it, they always say to avoid the acid core. I've always had questions about the flux issue - would you apply it around the holes? IIRC the main thing was to preheat the area just enough to melt the solder but not warp or damage anything. PO had alot of...

    Filling small holes without welding

    I have read in the past that you can fill small holes (like trim deleting) with solder and not have to mess with welding. Anyone done this and if so, does paint stick to it ok? I dont have a welder but do have some maybe 1/8" holes that need filled. Was figuring just using bondo but some metal...

    Interior cabin trims

    Thanks. So does the sides tuck under the door seals or do they overlap it?

    Interior cabin trims

    Does the interior trims (like around the headliner, a-pillar, b-pillar, etc) go in before or after the door opening seals? Was wondering if the sides overlapped the seal or were inside it. My truck never had trims and half the seals were missing so no idea how to know. I ask this because I...

    Weird Electrical Problem

    On cars I have worked on in the past, the ignition switch was known as the cerebral cortex of the electrical system - when it got moody, weird things began to happen (and some things - not happen). I would check that out - they weren't made to last forever.
