Found out something bad on my truck its been wrecked before the frame is bent to H311 well maybe not that bad but I never noticed it till today and on the top spindle its got a lot of spacer looking things about 3/4 of an inch of them on the drivers side wonder it that explains when I stomp on the gas it goes to the drivers side? So looks like a new frame!! is needed can probably be straightned out but I can get a used frame cheaper so new frame!!

MEMRACING62 06-11-2010 07:31 PM

on the upper control arm there is shims that go between the frame and the control arm cross shaft, that is how you adjust your caster & camber, those are supose to be there. if you feel the truck dosen't steer right have the alignment checked before you jump to conclusions. does the truck dog track ?

burnskustomz 06-11-2010 07:46 PM

Dog track? I'm gonna take it to the tires store and let them align it when I get a chance!! but yea the frame is bent to the right and I talked to my dads friend I think we might try to put a torch to it and pull it back straighter!!

cepx111 06-11-2010 11:25 PM

Any good frame/body shop will make short work of that tweaked frame, sure is cheapper than the alternative, a new one, if did have to go that route it would be better to just get another truck.

Replace the flexible rubber brake lines for that brake pull, they're bad about collasping internally.

Just spend hundreds of dollars on the brakes at the college and they don't charge for labor all new brake lines!! Brake rotors and drums turned also new brake pads/shoes!! And can't get a new truck to much scentamental value and I can get a frame for around 100 bucks or so!!

The best advice I can give you is to take it to a frame shop or a body shop to straighten the frame. Do not and I say again DO NOT put heat to the frame. When you heat it up you make it weaker in that spot. Even if you try to cool it down really fast by pouring water on it. When you pour water on it you are also making it more brittle. So take it down to a place that can straighten it out for you.
