I couldn't justify welding the mount to the firewall after stretching the wiring harness to fit into the channel made for it. I also welded a longer tube through the double layer firewall from the cockpit side, intead of using the crush tube he supplies.

I weld them all in.

It only takes 4-6 inches of bead on the outsides and 2-3 inches on the insides. Sometimes (in the past) i would do both.

If you have ever seen the stock 6 mount... welding th RJ mount in is OVERKILL compared to stock..

How old is that mount ?? I think RJ changed them from that style a few months back.

Larryp just bought it a month or so back.

I didn't like the idea of ever having to remove the wiring harness through that hole. I'm sure it doesn't need to be welded to be strong enough.
