After picking up my Lucky and Wild game and unloading it, I started noticing a rattle while driving my Jeep that I never had before...

I finally tracked it down, 2 of the welds on the heat shield under the back seat had broken away from the exhaust pipe. I patched them up with some JB Weld and all is good again, but I can't help but wonder if the weight of that game snapped them. All of the other welds are fine!

Oh well, I'm just glad I found it before the really crappy weather kicks in. I would not want to be laying out there in a pile of snow and slush trying to apply JB Weld- nor would I want that rattle shaking the fillings out of my teeth for the next 3 months! Whew!
 
Just curios...

what model of Jeep?
How heavy is the game?

That jb weld is great stuff!
