    Default Mobile Welders or recommendations?

    I need some frame cracks fixed on my 5th wheel pin box area. It's been fixed once before about 5-6 years ago. I double pulled a boat for the last 3 years now so I'm sure that puts extra stress on the front end.

    I haven't discovered anything significant to require box frame material replacement or more fish-plating needed, etc. but I haven't pulled the nose cap yet either. From the inside, the front beam looks bent up in the middle section. I have everything else pulled (under belly covers, trim, interior cabinets, bed, etc.) and ready to go at it.

    Had a friend lined up (offered to pay) but he's kinda busy and self-employed so I'm exploring options. His prior work (MIG) was superb and holding. These are new cracks around some old welds (not his), and a few cracks in some previous fishplate installed at the last repair (might have been weak/brittle steel) as welds are still solid.

    I'll have everything else (front cap) pulled apart and ready to go when scheduled. Otherwise I have to pull it to his shop and pull the cap there.

    Need to have completed most any day July 10-18 if possible.
