Recommendation for frame repair PORTLAND, OR

[chief_shotts]

Is there anybody that could give a recommendation for frame repair in Portland, Oregon. Previous owner cut about 6 inches- 1 foot of frame off the rear of my truck to accommodate a short bed. Well I would like to add that back on so I can finally attach my bumper.

There’s some Portlanders on here. Maybe haven someone who could weld it back on.
It’ll help to have the bed off and it ready to weld on. Then it’s a quick project for anyone who’s a decent welder.

if you need the frame rail pieces to weld back on i have a 85 c30 frame i that is headed to scrap if nobody takes it whole. Am in Malin in southern oregon so shipping shouldn't be bad.

Are you trying to convert it back to long bed or purely attach the bumper? If trying to convert back you need to add 14" back behind the cab and 5-6" at the rear. If just trying to put bumper on and the shortbed is mounted correctly, some of the holes may already be there and nothing needs to be added. When I shortened my son's, the frame was drilled for about half the bumper bolts on the short bed position and also already drilled for the rear cross member in the short bed configuration. Additionally holes were present for both 52 and 56" leaf lengths.
