Need to weld on some stiffeners - where?

[Markos]

Hey Folks,

My XJ was rear ended a few months ago, and I'm now addressing the damage. I'm having it pulled straight. The plan is to weld on some rear frame stiffeners from HD Offroad Engineering.

I'm looking for someone to weld them on. I could do it myself, but I generally suck at welding, and the duty cycle on my welder sucks as well. I need them stitched around the perimeter, and plug welded. I can handle grinding down all the rosette welds.

I may also just buy the whole kit for $330, which means more welding. So if anyone PM's me with an offer, include just the rears, along with the centers and fronts. If I do the centers, I'll probably need to weld on some mounting plates for my AJ's sliders, or weld the sliders on themselves. I dont' think the nutserts will cut it anymore.

Thanks for the tips so far.

Can anyone make a recommendation near the Seattle area? I'm firing an email over to John at Auburn Car.
