Default Re: Bent chassis

It really could be either bent rails or twist across the center. Modern frame straightening jigs would straighten it either way. Clamp or chain the high areas to the jig frame and start jacking on the low parts. The modern set ups allow for many more supports than the old K-frames did. A person can use a single I beam if only one rail is affected but it would take a double rail frame set up to work a complete chassis. It just depends on what a person has at hand that is strong enough to hold extreme pressures that it can take to do any given job.
