WITHOUT JUMPERING AND MODIFYING.....
I want to solder in a 6808 cpu into my williams system 6 mpu board without a socket. Would like to test it first. Any bally or stern mpu that will work with it for testing?

In your collection, Pinbot uses a 6808. Why wouldn't you install a socket?
The socket I put in would not flow to the topside. I used amtech flux which is now my all time favorite, and took my time, i ve done hundreds of sockets and never had an issue. After 2 hrs of fighting I soldered it shut by accident and it would not accept the chip. So I either install SIPPS and so both sides, or just solder the whole cpu in.
Will bally / stern mpus work? Or and squawk and talk boards? Pinbot was a basket case MPU that I paid a lot of money to get fixed, rather not flex and bend it messing around. I ruined a comet system 9 board and my flash boards by removing and reinstalling it. And yes static free environment too. So i assume its the flexing from the connectors, and sockets breaking solder joints or somthing of the sorts.

Not sure about the other boards that use the 6808. That would be easy to see by looking at the IC itself or the schematic.
What are you using to pull the chips? I use this and it works great for socketed chips:
