tools needed

Postby jclay (RIP 2018) » 24 Jul 2008 01:50

Hi,

I am back on total bed rest again, but when I am allowed to work again, I want to get the parts off the car for rblackadar.

I need the NAPA part numbers for a spot weld removal tool. They just looked at me funny when I asked for one.

Also, I have to cut the welds for the towing eyes. What pneumatic tool and part number do I need to cut these welds? The eyes are laid on the frame and welded along the edges. I have seen shows where they use cutting wheels, but I don't know what kind of tool to get.

I am back on antibiotics for the next week and bed rest for the same amount of time. It is SOOOOOO boring!

Have fun, drive fast & safe, be kewl,

jclay

Its all that excitement of becoming a grandad jclay.
It must have been too much for you. Now you just stay in bed, like a
good boy.

Its OK for you to have your computer though, we still want the input.

Jclay, my napa store had to go the the ....... napa paint store? I guess there is one Napa in town that just deals in paint, autobody stuff etc..... I had a real hard time finding the tool. It wasn't until I talked to an old pro that I finally had someone that knew what I was talking about. He had the part ordered in, oh I would recommend getting a couple spare cutting teeth as I found mine broke a little easier than I would have liked.

Can't save them all but I am trying!!!
