Weld shop recommendation

I need to have a shop fab and install a hitch on my trailer trailer for a bike rack. Does anyone have any recommendations?

where are you located?

there are a couple great fab places here in Kitsap (Bremerton area)

Pat at Those Guys is really good Those Guys Rod & Customs
he's done alot of work on local 4x4 rigs
(he's about to be chopping my friends F250 SuperCab Diesel to make it a short bed)

Darrin at m2autoworks.com - Home is a great guy,
he installed my Sub-frame Connectors (Weld In) on my GTO

both of these places can TIG (staneless, Aluminum, etc...)
and have great reputations

I even got Derrin at My Mechanic to fix a broken factory weld on a SS motorcycle exhaust (no exhaust shop was willing to even look at it)


if you're near Snohomish, talk to Ellis at Welcome to Speed Secrets EFI: The Secret to Reliable Performance
he did most of the work on my GTO

I'm located in Kirkland, but thanks for the recomendations. I ended up dropping it off at Glenn's Welding in Lynnwood. I'm very happy with the results.

Hehehe Fat Finger.... I think i am probably going to go to U-haul to get a quote to get a trailer hitch and wiring set up. Shouldn't be too expensive but i'm not sure.
