The shop that shortened the drive shaft for me said they would do it for $120 mig or it tig. I also checked with a mobile welder, he would charge $275, $55 of that would be the travel fee. That seems like a bit much just to weld two brackets ($275) or am I out of touch with welding charges?
it's moments like this that i lean on to easily convince the wife i need more tools.

new panhard bar mount is a win and she's lookin good, keep after it.
