Just a heads up for everyone thats welds be careful where you are doing it, it winter and cold glass doesnt like heat, trust me I started to add some stuff to my roof rack and I welded one thing on and then CRACK! DANG IT!!! there went my drivers side window so now I gotta replace it and its getting close to Christmas and I still have gifts I need to get :roll:

so just watch out!

Welding over your KJ? Next time take the roof rack off! :wink: .. Usually the paint doesn't like the slag either,not just the glass!


* I agree bad time to spend more cash then needed!

When I had to weld with the rack on the KJ, I used asbestos cloth to cover the important parts. That stuff is great. Luckily my dad bought a lot before it was out lawed.

Hmm. never cracked a window. I pitted the hell out of one though from all the welding sparks before. My brother actually cracked the windshield in his car before when he went to wash it in the summer time. Cold water + hot windshield = crack from top to bottom.
