Hey everyone been lurking around for a bit and finally decided to join the forum the other day so i though i would post up my problem.  Basiclly I got a 91 xj that has some rot in the rear bottom cornerns of the quarters (i hear this is actually pretty common) and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in helping fix it.  Drivers side is basiclly gone and the passenger is catching up.  I got a general idea on how to do it the main problem is having a place to do it and the tools since i live in a apartment.  Been wanting to wheel pretty bad but decided it be best to fix this issue first since its my daily driver and all I dont want to mess up my lights and what not with crude getting thrown up in there.  Anyone willing to help let me know.  I had someone on my forum that was gonna help me but they keep falling through.  I guess worse case scenario i can see about haveing a body shop do it but i would imagine that would cost a bit.

lol yeah that whole apartment thing kinda puts a damper on what you can and can't do.  I could do it my dads house problem is that its in tonganoxie ks (basiclly lawerence ks) so its a bit of a drive and last i talked to him his welder wasn't working right.

I have too many other things to do right now.  Give me some time and I will help you.  I have a plasma, welder and bender.  Plus, I have a soft spot for XJ's.  There are a couple of posts about XJ's that have a link to some of the sheetmetal work that I did to the old one that I was building.
I cut sheetmetal for free.  It's fixing it that get's expensive.

That would be awesome if you could. Yeah I have pretty much picked through all the xj articles i could find everwhere so like I said I have a general idea on what to do just don't have a place or the tools to do it in.  Thats actually how I found this site.
