Always an awful day when someone you've spent so much time and effort in gets wrecked. If there's no frame damage you could link the rear? If there is you could build a truggy Expand There is frame damage and while I think I can fix it I think I’m going to just let insurance take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 after all that work there's no way on god's green earth I'd just let the insurance company turn it into soup cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It is pushed in 3/4 of an inch at the front perch but I have a friend whose dad has a frame machine they are letting me use to pull it back straight then I’m just going to plate the outside of the rear rails to get some strength back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88mjsally Posted October 19, 2023 Author Share Posted October 19, 2023 Started to get the dent out of the cab corner. Had to cut out the inner support to get to the dent easier so I will have to weld that back in when I get the dent the rest of the way out. Still waiting on the frame machine to be repaired to pull the dent out of the frame rail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88mjsally Posted October 22, 2023 Author Share Posted October 22, 2023 Got the cab corner pretty much finished up with some help from my dad. I also swapped out the messed up leaf springs and sadly the rear d44 was bent so I had to swap it out for my spare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
