I poked around the forum for who had been recommended lately for welding services and the latest thread was was a few years back and it does not look like Ryan Garret is at that Lincoln location anymore from what I can tell. Anyone used him lately or know of another preferred welder?
I bought the Artec gussets and I thought I needed to remove the ball joints and the rest axle assembly to prevent damage which means i needed to bring in a mobile welder if I want do the disassembly/assembly work myself, but I am reading of folks just cruising in to shops and having it done in a couple hours, so they must be doing them without disassembly. Is that really safe for the axle components or am I just estimating way too much time for a pro to assemble/disassemble?
Thanks!

I had mine welded on by a place in georgetown called blacksheep offroad. Did an awesome job and it was decently priced, I only had upper gussets welded on though. So all he did was droop the axle and kept wet rags on the ball joints. I have the teraflex gussets that dont wrap around the upper part of the C, so I think that kept some heat off the BJ's.
There is also a place called Rock & Road performance in loomis if that is closer for you. I have seen his welds in person and they are outstanding. Might be a long wait though.
