Need support frame help

[klittlefield]

I was rearended last tuesday on the 202 and my Kamar rear bumper is toast. But more importantly the 2 frame supports and rear frame crossmember are too. Anyone have these laying around or know where I can get them. Also both the tailgate and lift gate are tweaked pretty bad too. And then there is the seat. I bent the crap out of it when the guy hit me so it looks to be needing replacement also.

I'm still waiting to hear from the insurance adjuster but I know they are going to total it out. So I' guess I'll see what they will pay.

Wow what hit you? Everybody OK?

WOW - With that much damage you were hit hard, hope nobody was hurt? Pics?

just my back it can be replaced.

I'll have pics up as soon as i get them off my phone. but the Ram quad cab that hit me is folded and luckily had an elec fan otherwise he couldn't have driven it home.

Let them total it out and tell them you want it back. I think the standard buy back is 10% of the pay out.

Then go pick up a donor off Craigslist and you're in business.

If only my back was as easy!!. But it'll get there as well.

Can someone get me contact info for the person in Marana that has the yard. I am sorry but I'm a little fuzzy right now and can't even remember his name. I am wondering if he might have a set of the rear doors for a 60. Since mine seem to have developed a crease in the wrong place.

fifty bucks and you can have the whole frame

Pix of the frame damage would greatly help. If it were mine, depending on the damage. I would have the frame straightened on a frame machine, then cut the cross member out, replace it with rectangular tube and reinforce the frame rails with plate. Get a 4x4Labs bumper or have rondog make one, ether would greatly increase the rear strength.

x2 on having the frame straightened before cutting anything.

Actually it tracks straight and it seems that all the damage is limited to the bumper and the tailgate mostly. just that when the bumper turned south at 45 degrees it tweaked the 2 frame supports that angle off on either side. And as soon as I can I'll get the pics up. My back is pretty mucked up and the leg is going numb so that is taking priority right now. If the Ins. Co will ever get their story straight it would help.
