Front Clip replacement
So i need some help. i have to replace the front clip on my 99 F250 PSD , gotta replace the core support as well, if anyone knows about a 99-07 SuperDuty thats been wrecked from the side or back let me know! or if anyone knows of any good wrecking yards that might have what im looking for any help is appreciated. or if you think i should just total it out im open to any suggestions, basically the whole front end is tweaked and got hit so hard it cracked the transfer case so im pretty sure the frame is bent somewhere, but wont know till i get it back from the frame jig.
thanks

useally the case breaks from the axel pushing the drive shaft backwards until it bottoms out . look at the pins/ bolts on the springs that hold them in the center.or bent springs . these frames are pretty tuff shouldnt be much for a good frame shop . what did you hit? how fast? i have fixed many . try to get a frt end with cooling if needed rad/ cond / fans ect. it will be alot less. god luck wes

thanks for the responses. im in central coast cali, but if the price is right im willing to travel or have delivered what i need which is a full front clip w/ core support + ac condenser, trans cooler, suspension, and steering components. the crack in the t case is in between the trans output and the front drive shaft and i knew thats what happened cuz theres a huge tire mark on the rear of the inside fender well so the whole front end on the drivers side compressed about 5 inches, i hit a dirt wall that launched me airborn into a tree doin bout 40mph. ordered my new tires earlier that day. shouldnt have waited that extra 2 weeks to get them.

Who knows what else got damaged during the landing.
