I know it’s debatable if adding armor to the 24 gal LRA tank is debatable but I’ve made that decision and will do it so the question is how to do it.
I know of at least one Mudd member (@Markuson ) who has done this. What I thought he did was have a shop weld SS plate to the tank. LRA told me not to weld anything to the tank as it will damage the aluminized steel the tank is made of. The suggested cold bonding like JB weld. Anyone done this? In my head, this seems easy to do. I’ll just cut a piece of 1/8” place to match the tank bottom and mix a big batch of JB and glue it in place. I’ve thought of adding straps or something but don’t think that’s really necessary.
