Body Mount Chop Question

I’m between welders at the moment. Looking to hold out until we are in our new home.

Are there any concerns with me doing the cab mount chop now and welding on the plate at a later day? I do not want to pay someone $300+ to do something I can handle.

FWIW I don’t do any serious off-roading. Mainly hunting on the ranch. Thanks

I’ve seen people chop now and weld later on this site. Can’t comment as I welded mine right away.

 

I don't think there's an issue with welding it later. Pretty sure @joonbug left his off for a bit. And, from what I've heard, a lot of Tacomas never bother welding in the plate. I think you're fine waiting.

 

Awesome. Thanks. I don’t see any problem with it personally but on the other hand my best thinking has gotten me into some trouble before

 

Only problem I see, God forbid getting into an accident...not sure if insurance would be of any help. Obviously depending on the degree of damage.
