Starting to take things apart for my CV swap, and went to pressure wash the gunk off before i started cutting. hit the drivers framerail with the pressure washer, and it started goin like a springy doorstop.
it looks like the top and bottom flats on both front frame rails right infront of the front suspension cross member cracked. at some point the bottoms were crappily welded, and the top was bondo'd......yes, thats right, bondo'd. I love all the half ass fixes ive found in this truck.
Also, Ive only ground off two rivits, and im already tired of that crap. i need a torch.
