Anybody around Phoenix AZ willing to help me install my 4" Marlin kit?

Just wondering if any of you guys in AZ are willing to help me out. I'm looking for someone with good welding skills and preferably someone who has installed a Marlin lift kit in the past. I'm good with a wrench and I can do pretty much everything but weld. I can wrench, cut, and prep surfaces for you to weld so I can be of some use. I'm running low on funds to pay a professional fabricator what they're asking, but I can compensate you for your time and provide food + beer. I had a really good fab guy in mind, but my situation has changed and I can't afford his hourly rate.

I have an 85 Runner and I'm located in Maricopa az, but I can bring the truck to you. Please reply here or pm me. Thanks!

Hey Chad, if I can find some time, or we can have a good gameplan I can help you out....I'm in the middle of my chebby spring swap right now. I've obviously never done a marlin kit, but I bet we could figure it out.

I have done a Marlin SAS kit to my old 4 Runner. I might be willing to help you out. It should only take 1-2 days to do this with 2 people working on it full days. I dont weld the prettiest but they hold. Feel free to pm me if you still need some help on this.

I can give you a hand. Do you have a location to work on it? Give me a call. What part of Maricopa? I'm off Honeycutt.
