Hey guys,

I'm trying to shave my rear squirter nozzle and wondering if you guys had any suggestions or detailed pics showing how you did it. I'm not going to get it welded. I know I should but I'm on a tight budget.

I'm going to fiberglass from the inside but its very tight in that area so I thought I'd ask around to see who's done it.

Thanks,
Rob

def. do not fiberglass it. the repair will fall off in a year or 2. fiberglass and steel have different expansion rates. if you want an alternative buy some fusor and use that instead of welding. its stronger and requires basic tools you can get at autozone

rear squirter... not the front. I never use it so I don't see the point in keeping it.

Yeah I'm thinking that I'm going to go get it welded. Better to weld and not worry about it I guess.
