    I'm about to purchase some sliders (4xinnovation, elite offroad, or BAMF), but before I do I was trying to see if there are any recommended welders that would do a good job.

    The main thing is that I don't want to go through the pain of doing bolt-on since I still have to make new holes. I figured a good quality weld is better than trying to do something on my own that might not hold. Anyone know of some people who do this kind of work for a reasonable price? I'm based in Mountain View, CA.
