My 86 F150 frame is cracked where the steering gear box bolts on. I have had it welded twice and it doesn't hold. Do they make a repair kit for Fords like they do Chevys? Please help!
Theres nothing at the bottom to drill through and the crack goes all the way to the top. There is no room to build it up with anything. I don't know what else to deo.
Don't weld a frame "across the grain". The only way to save it is weld a structural plate. But do not weld "up and down". It will fail. Only weld along the fore and aft on a frame. Grind off all the stuff on there and take it back to the original frame. Build a plate, weld it on (not up and down) and remount the steering box. Good luck.
