I need to have some welding done on a 90, couple of out riggers nothing fancy. Anybody know a good welder round leeds or york that won't take my arm off?

It's not in Leeds, but there's a good independant LR garage over here to the east of Wakefield.
He's (as far as I know main-dealer trained) & also has an interest in classic cars.
Admittedly it's a bit out of the way, but one road from jct 31 of the M62 (then 300yards off the A-road)

But the obvious question really, is which part of Leeds are you in?
There's also 2 independants in Dewsbury.

They do some nice restorations, their own 90 is a good example

Martin Dransfield owns this garage, he's one of the 'Q&A' guys in 'LRE'. He also has a background in Comp Safaris - both racing & building, so his welding is certainly 'up to scratch'
Sorry :oops: ,can't remember the name & hence can't find a phone number.
Must try harder :oops:

How about a truck repairer?, they'll be used to chassis work.
John Robinson (http://www.johnrobinsoncommercials.co.uk/index.html) in Armley, for example?

I know an LR Dealer mechanic who works from home on a weekend. Has a very nice modified 90 :D
I've got his number if you are interested, don't know what he charges :?:

Go to your local tech collage and book yourself in on a welding course they cost next to nothing and you get to use all there gear to weld your car with a Professional helping and the bonus is you never have to pay a welder again :D

I've said several times that I would love to do that, but unfortunately the hours I work don't allow it :(

Very interested andy, I would have thought this would be the cheapest sensible option. All been well I'll collect the project this coming week, so no immediate rush.
