    Need recommendations for a good welder in central Kentucky, preferably in Elizabethtown, Hodgenville, Campbellsville, or Bardstown area.

    I've got a 2000 4runner I need a plate welded onto the ends of the frame rails to mount an ARB bumper and 4xinnovations sliders welded together and onto the frame. Just want to make sure it's done right or I'd just take it to a muffler shop.

    Thought about beertimecontinuum but it looks like he's an hour and a half away. Rather find something a little closer.

    Thanks!

    If I can't find anyone good locally I'll be making a road trip!

    Would a good tractor mechanic be someone to check out or should i stick to auto shops?

    Anywhere you go could be hit or miss. Auto shop would hopefully understand what you want with the bumper alignment.

    For what it's worth Drunken Yard Fab is kind of a TW joke. I'm an enthusiast with a welder and a cooler and no shop lol. However I am proficient at cutting/welding tacomas whilst drinking beer in my Yard :D

    Seriously, wish I was closer. I'd take care of welding those plates on for a case of beer.

    I used to trade but had to start charging. Not so much to cover my costs but the wifey was getting angry with all the Yard traffic and weld-party Saturdays lol

    Ironically, I never think of you as a "welder", even though that's your livelihood!
