legvw 0 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 To weld it properly you'll need the box stripping, and cleaned, and get it tig welded. It could be done without stripping but imo it won't be clean enough and will damage the internals. Link to post Share on other sites
rsweeney 40 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 i wouldnt be able to strip it would i ? there is nowhere on guernsey that can strip it. i need a proper weld without damaged internals but then again it would be refurbed so ... Link to post Share on other sites
