        Jeff, you do not have to  weld if you don't have access to welding
or want to clean up the welding  afterwards.  I just did one a few weeks ago
and bolted it in.  Drill  three holes along each frame rail into the body
then tap the hoes in the body  and bolt it in with six bolts.  I used 8mm
bolts.   But, whatever  drills, taps and bolts you have will work just fine.

install in in the passenger side of my  '85 GL.

I know it has to be welded in - any pointers or advice from  others who have
done this already? Any chance there is a write up with  pictures floating
around out there  somewhere?<<<<<<<<
