So I started the tear down process.
Here's the bad news, the welds for the led to top frame are all cracked!
Here's my laundry list of parts I need to get:
- Handles - Just because I want those fancy wood ones.
- Wheels - Need all four (and hubcaps)
- Ash sweep system
- Ignition - Need the whole thing.
- Tool holders
- Tube end plugs
- Ash catcher handle
- Lid hanger bushings
- All nuts & bolts
So I have some questions
1. For the ash sweep, do I need to get the original 7409, or can I use the new one? FYI, I managed to save the ash ring bracket.
2. What do you guys do about the propane tank. This one is well past expiration and I'm not about to drop $50 on a new tank.
3. Has anyone repaired a frame in this bad of condition? I have a friend that can weld.
