    Get it done right, it looks like it was repaired before and not cleaned enough to have a good weld.

    Ill put that website in my quiver, but id really rather weld it myself, ive been burned too many times by others shoddy overpriced work

    Thats just grease and rusty bubbles, stock weld, 20 years and 1+ mill miles in areas with excellent roads near detroit, chicago. Couple that with heavy long chambers cantilevering on a single connection...

    front set of chambers have an extra bar for support welded to the diff. Ill be adding those at home and the pass side bracket weld
