Mobile Welder was created by tomcat
I am seeking a "mobile welder" in the Milton Keynes area.
Google shows companies with workshops but not a "mobile" welder.
Any assistance appreciated. Thanks

Why the mobile welder? It’s more difficult without a workshop… what needs doing?

Hmmm. Wonder if it’ll need to be stripped to weld it? I wonder about pulling it out and taking it somewhere. Or just swapping it out

In the end I managed to locate a replacement axle fairly near to me.
This has now been delivered.
I was trying to get welding done at the garage location.
Hopefully problem now solved.

Before you put on the new axle, I would take it to a welder to get the mounts plated up with thicker metal. It's a really simple job for them with the original mounts in place for alignment
