Still even though they drop the price. The frame is still not done right and will eventually crack and can cause a major headache or a serious accident.

Its trucks like this truck, that makes me think that inspections on older vehicles is a good idea.

Well hard to say but those inspections would probably be a big PITA for sure but a good idea if someone is tinkering with a frame and dont know what there doing

Marshall you should keep us (me even) posted with how you make out doing the patch panels. I have cut some out but still have to weld some in, and if it goes well i will be doing a few trucks.
