[QUOTE="Thomas Clark, post: 935743, member: 64060"] you have about the same kind of damage I do, just on the other side. I called a shop and the owner said the frames are very strong and sometimes they are not worth attempting. He said his frame machines are rated a 50,000 lbs and he has broken the chains on his machine and not gotten the frame straight. He also said he get people who had their frames straightened else where and they alignment is bad enough to ruin the front tires in 2 months. In order to get the truck to a shop to have it looked at I have to put a wheel back on there and the knuckle is snapped clean in half. I am thinking of welding the knuckle together and putting the wheel on just to get it on a tow truck. [/QUOTE]
