Bent frame?

So i get rear ended on the left lane and its now pulling to the right not sure if it could have frame damage or just need an alignment?

 

I’m sorry for the incident.

however, no one will be able to reliably tell you from that picture. The frame is underneath the truck and you have to post multiple photos of the underside of the truck. Even then it’s hard to tell form just photos. Bring it to a reliable mechanic.

 

I took it to the dealer ship yesterday hopefully they can get in touch with me soon. But i regret not taking more pictures of the bottom

 

Looks like they hit your leaf spring perch on the right side. Possible frame damage, possible leafspring damage, possible factory leaf hangar damage.

If this were my Taco, I wouldn't be driving it right now.

 

I didn’t notice the leaf springs bracket till now hopefully its not as bad as it may seem

 

There's no alignment to be had on the rear end of a leaf sprung vehicle. It's either bent, or it's not.

Presumably you have insurance. Let them handle this.

 

If the frame is bent:

 

Sorry your new truck got slammed. That said, we'd only be guessing. It's so new they're gonna do everything they can to keep it on the road.

 

Dibs on his weather strips!!!

glad you're okay OP

 

atleast carvana gonna pay top dollar for that voodoo that you do. am i right or amirite.

 

Dibs on the headlights!

 

Dibs on mirrors and steps!

 

Did someone say flatbed?

 

Might as well 4-link it to fix the axle issue

 

Similar to my incident, not quite tho. No pictures of frame? Mine was noticeable

 

That's just barely noticeable

 

You'd be surprised how this little mod would have saved you $$$$$$$

 

Likely the frame is OK but the shackle hanger is bent, causing the leaf spring (and therefore the axle) to shift a little. The hangers are easily bent off-roading as well, but they aren't too bad to replace in a shop environment.

 

That would have ensured to bent the frame, since all the energy of the crash would got transferred to the frame.

 

Sometimes when the shackle gets hit, the axle will slide on the spring at the perch and cause the vehicle to dog walk. Just a thought while your waiting for the news.
