Fab shop needed in the Phx area

I need suggestions on a fab shop that can tackle the JD FAB Tacoma 05-23 Lower Arm Pivots, and preferably in the East Valley. TIA!

 

@XPOTRPR - have any recommendations?

 

You are not that far away. Just take it to JDFab then you know it will be done right.

 

@snowsk8air2 has done a couple of them I believe. He's up in flag tho. Otherwise somewhere like 454 Motorsports that's familiar with JD's stuff too.

 

You wanting to duplicate that? What exactly were you wanting done?

 

I’ve done a few of them, but yeah up in flag. 454 would be a good option down in the valley

 

Install that kit. Have to cut the old mounts off and then that kit locates off some factory bolts and gets welded in

 

+1 vote for making @snowsk8air2 do it for you, hes never busy

edit: he did mine and its rad

 

Actually sort of not busy at the moment lol. Well, prerunning koh the weekend before thanksgiving, then gone the week of thanksgiving in the desert. Then all hands on deck for 8 weeks to prep the car and my truck.

But I can squeeze it in. If I recall it took around 12-15hrs to do. So it’s a full weekend job but can be done.

 

Well damn, I wont be home until the week before turkey day so theres no time for you to work on my next round of stuff. Guess its time for me to finally learn to weld!

 

I'm send you a message.

 

Wow I just did some reading on that thing and damn that's awesome!

 

Figured I’d share the updates in here. Bryan had the truck shipped up here last night. Arrived around 9pm last night.



Got started this morning around 8:30 with the tear down.



Then the always worst part ever. Cutting off the old mounts and cleaning things up. Actually got this done in record time today.



Jd fab kit massaged to meet the frame.



And all welded up and done for the day after 8hrs straight.



Tomorrow we have to weld the mount for the front skid on, massage the lower skid mounts so it bolts up nicely, paint and start some maintenance during reassembly.

 

Damn youre getting fast with those things!! Enjoy the sound of silence (from your tires not rubbing anymore) @Brian007Taco

 

Well then original time estimate of 12-15hrs was pretty good. Probably could have been done and on the ground today if it weren’t for a few things. Like adding doing cv boots, and finding a bent spindle keeping me from assembling the driver side. Probably would have been spot on at 14hrs. But clocked out at 15hrs today. Waiting on a spindle to assemble the driver side. Skid is ready to bolt up was just letting paint dry. And then need to make a quick bracket to weld to the cross member so the trans skid has something to bolt to since the jd skid doesn’t adapt to it.

Would have been nice to set it on the ground today but not the right call with how bad the spindle is. Still with frame being a little tweaked adding time, cv’s, spindle, and trans skid adapter gone be right around 20hrs or less.
