    If you have about 50ft of 220v cord on your welder we can run it into the kitchen and plug it into the stove plug

    This is cool too.

    If we need to we can lay a tarp out back and spray it in the yard. I have a chop saw for wood so if I got a metal blade for it would that work for you?

    My lift is going on in a couple weeks. I'll be chopping the cab mounts for sure. I've found someone willing to weld on the plates when we all get to Moab, but I wouldn't mind doing it sooner and not having to deal with it out in the desert.

    I don't know how to weld..yet.. Assuming we have a welder on hand, would anyone be so gracious and willing to weld the plates on for me?

    as long as the welder can penetrate the thickness of the sliders and frame I can help out with that.
