[QUOTE="novaman, post: 272153, member: 6585"] Nice project to do :WELCOME: . And yes ,welding is the only way. Looking at the pics, someone already tried to rivet a patch in,( notice the 2 BIG rivets, and the way the material is gound away), it didn't tear first, but when it got to where there wasn't hardly any material left it tore. For Your safety and pc. of mind look up a fab shop who can form and fab the aluminum from experience not, somebody who's willing to "try it". A $100 dollars should more than cover it , at least in My neck of the woods. Good luck, and we'll we waiting for more pics of the repair and the mods. [/QUOTE]
