So I got my truck up and running great!! so ive been tackling some body work... The bed is pretty bad, but i know i cant affors another short fleet.. I have very basic tools.. Last night I tackled a huge dent on teh top of my tailgate.. i welde a washer to it and pulled it up with my hoist while i massaged the bulge on th esides and heated it with a torch. ist one worked after that my welds would break.. the body doesnt realy seem that bad but once yourealy pay attention its like damn!!!

220= 2x110 . Do you have a finished garage?

thats a negative sir..... but from what i undertand is if you have a switch in your box that goes to your garage. to just one single outlet you can just swap it to a 220 breaker and throu in a 220 receptacle.. in other words you dont have to run wires through your finised garage.. let me talk to my step fatherinlaw (that sounds weird).. he know about this stuff and loves has a 72 swb 4x4.. im sure he'd do it for some parts or somethin... he works nights
