Default Welding

Hey CL fam, does anyone know a welder or a place for fabrication? I have something very small that i need to be welded. I just got my cusco sway bar but it didnt come with a bracket on the drivers side to hook up my AFS. So i was thinking to just weld the old bracket on to the cusco sway bar.

OR would cold welding work? like JB weld?

I wouldn't recommend welding to the the bar. I would have a new bracket built to mount to the chassis. The heat generated during welding may alter the characteristics of the bar.
