Sorry man. The guy who just welded my 8.8 brackets tried to screw me over so I couldn't refer you to him and have a good conscience about it.

what part of town are you in?

you may want to mention if your installing just the truss or the whole kit and if so are all the brackets cleaned off the 8.8 or will that need to be done.
I have a set prices on items that I have done several of but I personally have only done one artec front truss and it was a nice piece but its in several pieces which involves a lot more welding and cooling for that matter and I just don't have a solid time/money answer for you on that product.

thanks scott

Sorry I should have been more clear the axle is shaved no old brackets it is a complete artec truss with all brackets trackbar, shock mounts, spring perches, swaybars, I live in newport kentucky so I am close to cincy

Call up Hilltop Performance in Harrison. I believe they sell the Artec products and I stopped in their a few weeks ago and they were installing a similar kit.

Great group of guys.
