Bent frame

Has anyone done this with a 3rd gen towing?

 

This happens to a lot of trucks, the idiots take a picture of it clearly towing offroad.

I would wash it, put the stock tires back on, and bring it to the dealer.

"I found it bent this morning"

 

That guy bent his frame because he put too long of rear struts, it bottomed out and the struts caused the frame to bend. At least thats what ive heard from the videos about it.

 

Frame on that (Jeep?) may be rusted out or have prior damage/straightened/weakened ....

 

I doubt its rusted out, that model came out in 2019

 

WTF are those tires?

 

I’ve seen this on 2nd gens quite a bit but no 3rd gens yet. I’m sure it will come.

 

Doubt that's it's rust. The gladiators just came out last year. Probably had too much tongue weight. That trailer has a long tongue.(place Gene Simmons jokes here)

 

that jeep

similar to this chevy https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/chevy-colorado-destroys-frame-while-towing.615725/

is what happens when you bite off more than you can chew

go over and beyond any given limit enough and shit is bound to bust

 

he might get over .............................. maybe

that little trailer did NOT bend that frame

that tongue weight did NOT bend that frame

how much air did U get over that whoopz

 

It's from getting airborne and driving Baja style, definitely not rusted out on a new gladiator.

There is also a story or a new Colorado zr2 with the same bent frame and dealership ejected the claim.

These stories are all over and like stated they are all pulling little off road trailers and off road..

 

There was a 3rd gen this happened to. I’m sure someone will post

Edit: def happened to a ZR2, still thinking it happened to a 3rd gen but maybe I’m confusing them. Anyways here’s a link.

 

I swear I’ve seen that. But I never post research to back up my claims.

 

I did a search but couldn’t find it

 

not to mention thousands of 1st and 2nd gens as their frames rotted away

 

Exactly whyy I didn’t try. TW search function sucks. And I can’t be bothered to spend 20 min on something I really don’t care about. So just take my word for it

 

I wonder if the Instagram points can be redeemed for am insurance deductible.

 

I believe you.. and agree it's out there

I bet if we searched we could find pornstars with bent frames from being rode to hard...

 

If the shocks bottomed out and bent the frame it would have bent it in the other direction.

 

It's OK, this is the era of feelings and conflict. Reality has no power here.
