Title: Small welding job
Post by: Kiwi on March 20, 2008, 04:10:25 PM

Hey guys,

I have a Grand Cherokee with a broken seat bracket.  The 4 "legs" of the seat that bolt to the electric powered bracket are broken.  Must have been some really fat bastard who owned this before me!

Can anyone recommend where I can get these broken metal legs welded together again?  I would unbolt the seat and take the legs into a shop t make it easy...

Cheers!

Daryl.

That is all you need, just a few welds I have a buddy that has a welder, I will have to get ahold of him. Just give him a coffee certificate from Timmies.

Thanks Raf!!

I too the whole seat out over the weekend and I don't think that it is weldable...  The broken parts are actually the pivot points at the back that tilt the seat pan.  Looks like I will have to get a new seat bracket!

Thanks for the offer of help though!

I'll try to find something elsefor you to weld...

Cheers!  Daryl.

Go to Pick N Pull in Calgary, they have a ZJ there. It might still have the seats in it. I am not sure as I am always across the aisle picking through the trucks.
