    You should check your front actuator anyway, maybe somebody stole it from you :D

    Since you guys have already been through getting the frame replaced...whats involved.
    Does the entire engine and trans come out?
    If so that meens new trans fluid,new power steering fluid,new engine coolant,brake fluid?
    Thanks for any info...
    I did see a video on youtube of them leaving the motor and trans jacked and pulling frame out the bottom. It was a Tundra though

    Has anyone else experience poor radio reception after their frame replacement? Since my frame was replaced, I can't pick up stations at the distance I could before and I experience static when I pass under powerlines. My brother experienced the same problem after his frame replacement and his work was done at a different dealership. I got not help from the dealer when I took the truck back and made them aware of the issue. They merely checked the radio connection and indicated it was reconnected properly to the antenna and there was nothing more they were willing to do.
