bent truck frame (chrisren old truck)
hi guys just thought i would show ya"ll how bad off his truck really is lol lil more than i expected but oh well it has the front frame horns bent has a crack in the drivers side upper rail from the impact and is bent on both sides just about where the bump stops are also the whole front axle is shifted over about a hlaf an inch causing one hell of a vibration at 65 to 70 mph guess i have a lilttle more work than sheet metal

it really was not that hard of a hit it was the angle of it that did all the damage all of the sheet metal damage is just fenders grill and bumper thats it
it wont thke to much to fix it i would prolly drive it like it is but witht he crack in the frame i dont want to so i will just put it on the rack and fix it should take about 4 hrs to do it

Sorry jason.. I had a frame shop get under it and give me an estimate,( Mikes Frame Repair on SE 6th Street, Topeka KS) they didnt say anything about the rail being cracked. They felt the damage was limited to back as far as the first cross-member.
