Texas 4x4 shop with a good rep!

Ok guys here we go.

I had my current lift kit installed by Truck Toyz in McAllen. I was santisified with the work and the entire crew was nice and friendly also seemed fairly knowlageable.

I am going to purchase some components that will require some welding (Radius arms and bumps) and custom placement. I would think that Truck Toyz could handle this no issue. Does anyone have expirience that would lead them to think otherwise? Or could you recommend a place with a solid reputation. I dont need my truck falling apart and welds are irreversable for the most part..... so i need to be sure.

Thanks for the help

do you have any pics of the welding/work. Im not going big like that, actually droping down a bit. it would just be welding on the bracketry for the R/A's and the bump brackets, maybe bracing the rear shock mounts. I just dont want my stuff breaking or welds cracking or any of that kind of mess.

no thats the thing they are 52" long and depending on the height your at the brackets have to be placed accordingly. I can tell you where they need to be and even weld them but i dont trust my 300 dollar welder or my welding skills. I want there to be no questions about the strength of the welds. It would be nice if i could find a good shop to do it all for a diecent price...

I got all the tools here at my house so you dont have to drive far. Only thing that sucks is we will have to do it in the driveway cause your monster truck wont fit in my shop. But the driveway is flat and wide!

whatever you do DONT use Extreme Offroad in Katy.
Ive heard good things about BNC Offroad.
They did the 10-12in on my Sierra 1500 and it held up abuse for 82k miles before my first issue.
B&C OFFROAD - 4x4 Truck Accessories

Ive also heard good things about All-Out Offroad
