Welding Blankets

[Badcop]

Does anyone have some or knows where to get em? I need to weld my roll cage together in my XJ and I doent want to burn it to the ground or strip it either. If you have some and are willing to loan them, lemme know.

I think he is talking about a place in SLC by the airport on Wright Bros that occasionally has good stuff, but usually has nothing when I show up there. If you get lucky you could find the blanket there, but they do not stock anything, it is stuff that comes from wrecked semi's, and other mix and match stuff like that.

Redneck blanket.... Old, wet carpet works great.

You could take your Jeep and cage to a place that has TIG. TIG does not produce sparks. Anarchy/Holeshot has TIG, but you might have to wait till after Jeep Safari, as most shops are booked until it is over.

Make sure that you cover all the glass. The sparks usually will bounce off plastic but will stick in the glass.

Im thinking since 5pt seats are going in anyway, screw it and pull it all out, tape some carpet around the glass and doors, and call it a day.

Bryson/Vonski - You guys have tig down there???

 

[Hickey]

Try taping cardboard to the glass. It's easier to work with. It won't catch on fire unless you are throwing a shower of sparks, which you shouldn't be if your parameters are set right.

 

[Badcop]

Ive heard of that method too, but I wasnt really interested in throwing down the fire extinguisher if I did.

...or you could just go buy a welding blanket. I think I paid $25 for mine at Harbor Freight.
