Yes for sure i hear ya... my goal isnt to achieve a rust free rig but to mend it well enough so it doesnt taco on while out drowning some worms. Ive got the time to mess with it and its a good learning experience for me incase i ever come across one in good shape down the road. When ive...

Oh thats rough. Ill zip 'em off!

A sliced bogger?

I have a welder. Im a little ways away from figuring out what exactly i have to do here. This rig wouldnt have lasted so long if only in NL. In ON until 2007
