Founded by Randall Jeffries in 2021, Jeffries Manufacturing LLC is a West Virginia metal-fabrication shop that makes American-made products including repair supports for first-generation Toyota Tundra frames and protective guards for outboard motors used in high-water rescue. Its distinctive work grew from a focus on precision Tundra frame plates—the company says it is the only manufacturer of this type—and a patented propeller guard developed with the Glasgow Fire Department. Jeffries brings more than 29 years of welding and fabrication experience to custom projects while sourcing steel from West Virginia vendors.
