You might try sending Benny Langford an email, he has been welding up diffs for the club awhile now. When he goes home on the weekend brings it with him, then brings it back done. I do not remember what he is charging but it is a very fair price. I just dont know if he has time or not/going home anytime soon. Shoot him an email "Billet Benny" on here I think.

I can weld your diff for you. I'll do it for 30 bucks if you just bring me the 3rd member and I gurantee all my work. The last two toyotas I built up, I welded the rears in and wheeled the crap out of them for 2 years each before I sold them and never had any probs. Shoot me an email if you want me to do it.

I can attest to the punishment Jared has put his rigs through, and trust me if it lives through his use then it aint coming apart before something else does.

Jared also did some welding on my ranger awhile back, never had a problem out of it again. As far as a place to get some blasting done I do a place but its for work, so doubtful you could get some rotors and stuff in there but maybe, who knows. There are some shops in the area/Salem/Roanoke that should have that but dunno if you can do it yourself if you were trying to.
