We started on my Dak today. I have some pictures on how to fix my roof. I can't get a stud welder to help pull out the dents. Is there another way to do this.

Now here is the interior which we start cleaning tomorrow.
What year is yours Reb? Looks like you might have to pull the carpet for a good scrubbing and shop vac finish.

it's a 94 club cab. I have carpet cleaner and a brush. I hope I don't have to take out my carpet. I am trying to find out if I have rotors with the wheel studs or if I have a separate hub assembly and rotor.
The 2wd fronts have re-packable bearings and a rotor with hub. The 4wd rotors are composite. tmm
I looked them up on Rockauto website. http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=138400&cc=1087578

Instead of a stud gun type of pulling why not go old school with a slide hammer or whatever they are called? There is also another system that is like the stud gun setup but its welds it self to the panel and you have a big fulcrum point for leverage, but if you can't find a stud gun I doubt you will find this setup either.

I found a stud welder,my problem is buying it.The cheapest was Harbor Freight,if I get one I have to be able to use it more than one time.

You have a Mig Welder? I found this looks like a cheap solution you don't have to worry about breaking.
