    Looks like I need to get my truck on a frame machine or have a expert look it to determine how bad it is, anyone know a place to go in AZ?

    Round Valley?? Damn! :)

    Unfortunately I am of no help to your issue. Maybe start with a local dealer? See if they suggest anyone or a local body shop if they know anyone as well? Good luck man.

    I can get those up later today, what it came down to is the driver front side is bent in about 1/8 of an inch, I have to take the skid plate off to see whats bent underneath luckily alignment is in tact cause vehicle isn't pulling to one side over the other.

    Also the driver door is nearly hitting the frame when you open the door nothing serious at the moment but wondering if it more prone to bend now that the damage as been done.

    Drivers side front What?

    The drivers side door nearly hitting the door frame is just body work.

    Sorry about the late reply


    It was all cosmetic work that need to be down front end was off 3mm Tacoma's are built to go up to 5mm off total cost was $800. That cost included setting the front end back ($400), setting the battery box to the correct position and painting the area that was bent (due to the battery slamming down left a dent under the hood) was the extra $400

    Guess I should have never stopped at that place in El Paso was a little mexican man with his wife trying to tell me the frame was bent but hey when you take a new truck out guess your bound to worry a little
