My 2000 Dakota was in an accident before I bought it. The whole back end was damaged and the frame was bent in a diamond shape. I bought a 2003 Dakota rearframe from the wrecking yard and replaced mine.I had my friends at MAACO bend it back with their frame bending machine. Amazing!! They had the factory schematic and measurments for the frame.

 

Im so very jealous. This is the third or so post ive seen of you doing things to your truck and Im jealous that I cant do anything to mind for at least 2-3 months. Or more like next spring/summer cause I dont wanna play in the nasty New Hampshire winter[:@]

Tho kudos because it looks like (to my untrained eye ) that you are doing things right and not rushing/half assing things!

I caught a typo just before it posted and i STILL have to edit it [:@]
