I would rather spend my money local too. People sing praises to the mail order places. I would rather spend a couple bucks and go to a speed shop and put my hands on it.

I am also relocating the brackets on the d30 because the end links will contact the drag link so I picked up 2 of these

So all my parts have come in, the swaybar drop brackets as well as the bottom sway bar mounts. Also my jks quick discos came in from serious offroad(got delivered very fast!) so it seems like everything's gonna bolt up well the only part I have left to do is weld the axle side brackets. Here's what I got going on ,






Deciding to weld to old mount or grind off the old mount entirely. In that case I would have an experienced shop do the fab work. But as I have set everything up it seems like the discos will be at a much better angle if the new brackets take the place of the old ones as opposed to welding it on top of the stock bracket and leaving an offset.
Any tips so far as to how I am going about this? If I do take it in for minimal fab work what should I expect to pay? Thank again for the helpful info!
