More problems with my frame...
Have you guys ever come across a frame bending where the Radius arms attach to the frame? It seems that I have and I'd like to know whether its fixable or not. If it's not then I've gotta sell my 'ol girl and pickup another capable wheeling machine.
Please, it's killing me to see her with a bend in the frame...

Its the frame around where the bracket is attached to the frame. I wouldn't think that this would be a high-stress area. I think I'm going to get my hi-lift jack out, put it between each frame rail and try that to straighten it out. Then I'm going to drill a hole at the end of the crack and have one of my buddies weld the crack and then reinforce the frame by boxing it in around that area.

Good news man. I really hope that this can be worked out and still be functional. I almost thought of running a custom bar from one side of the frame to the other were the radius arms attache to the frame for extra reinforcement.
