Welding rear passenger upper shock mount...? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Should I make sure my life insurance policy is paid up before trying this? The rear upper shock mount on my passenger side is reamed out, and needs to be welded back in place. Its about 3" from the hard line to the gas tank, and since I haven't drawn a bead since about 1987 I am a little nervous about welding with my dad's old MIG on top of a gas line.

Has anyone recently done this weld? What did you do to keep from blowing yourself up?
