    It's a little hard to tell in the pic but is it twisted a little?
    What did you hit/hit you?

    It is twisted a little. I'll post more pictures up in a minute. I didn't hit anything. The previous owner said something about the right side getting hit and having to replace the light and fix the bed (Which didn't work for shit). But he didn't say anything about the driver's side. There is a large dent in my bumper though that he said was from a motorcycle trailer cutting into it one night. Could that be it? I don't think so but still… :(

    It's hard to say what happened to cause the frame to do that. I would take it to a shop to look at. Did you get any kind of car fax report when you bought it? Maybe cash in on their buy back guarantee.

    Went out to Tolar Saturday just messing around. Looks like a good place to go but you need protection. My question is how much is needed? Anyone actually been back in the rocks?

    Yes; and sliders are a great place to start. I'll be out there Saturday probably and maybe Sunday. It depends on if any of my buddies bail out on me. :cool:


    How's the tire hunt coming, Robert?

    I bought it from the previous owner. So I doubt I can do anything now. But I'll take it to a body shop sometime soon and see what the damage is. I hope its fixable. I kinda want a bumper replacement sometime in the future and it has to fit first :eek:

    Unless its causing problems, vibes, uneven tire wear, etc I honestly wouldn't worry about it. Beat it back into place with a big hammer and call it good.

    Don't fix what ain't what broke

    Hey Adam, you want some fiberglass front fenders? I'm coming up to DFW to get my new transmission this weekend. I can bring the fenders with me if someone up there wants them.
