Anyone in Iowa with welding expertise?

[BIGSLVRXJ]

Hey guys, looking for someone fairly local to help with some welding projects. I need to have some 5x2 steel I bought welded in for rocker replacements, I have a welder but no welding experience and not much knowledge on the project. I also need a couple end caps welded on the start to a front bumper I have. The last thing is I need to have around 10 holes in my roof filled from where the factory rack was. If anybody around here is willing to do the job, I would be happy to pay them, as I said, I just lack the experience in all these areas and want to learn. I know this isn't the best time of year for things like this, I'm just getting giddy to have my XJ ready for Winterfest. Thanks in advance.

It is, I wasn't even thinking about AJ...I may try hitting him up. He built a sick rear bumper for my old MJ...thanks Brendan.

I talked to Luke today he said he would do the quarter fold for some cash. I got power back so I could weld the end caps.

I'll take care of the quarter fold, but I will have you do the end caps for sure Dustin. Let me know when you'd be available. I want to get a front bumper on BAD. I may try to crank my welder up all the way and burn the rails in, just haven't decided if I have the balls yet.

Just man up and cut and weld the stuff in. Gotta learn sometime.

Hey Curtis,
Thank you so much for the offer. I am going to see how much Dustin wants to do but I will use you for whatever he won't. Can you do all types of welding including sheet metal?
