    yeah, no one posting had a single bit of experience fixing shit themselves (except @snowsk8air2 ). they are the types who just claim insurance and buy a new one or pay someone to fix things. I appreciate your experience/advice!

    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    OR, perhaps we have fixed enough to not have to come to a forum to ask for help. Also there is a difference in patching something and doing it correctly.

    You started a thread on a public forum asking for advice, which was given to you. It wasn't good enough, so now you have to be condescending towards everyone else. There's lots of folks here who work on their own shit. You won't get much help here being a total wanker.

    Except for the guy you put on ignore who told you to pull the bed and put some weight on the frame rail.

    The only reason you listened to snowsk8 is because his truck looks how you want yours to look

    You asked a question, people responded and then you spent 4 pages bragging about your fab skills

    Oh, I see a little drama below my last post. Welcome to the real TW.

    I wasn't im a position to pay others to fix my sh!t for most of my life so... to each their own. That Ford frame was fully welded, not riveted like a Taco frame, it shouldn't be a problem for you to get it straight again. Most garage floor concrete is about 6 inches thick, driveways and such can be as thin as 3 inches. Use bolts at least 6 inches long on the garage floor.

    Sadly the OP will not see this. Along with me operating a fab shop with 12 employees and three million in equipment. We don't tie our shit to a pole to repair it so we have no cred.
