You COULD look at it in a more positive light.
If the rear axle is bent and you need to re-do things back there, you could always stick a Dana 80 back under it.
You've shown you can fabricate well, I'm thinking you could come out of this with a nice rear in the deal. :D

Oh, and yeah, I do have a decent pair of dually fenders, if you need them.

A real man knows WHEN to bawl like a baby, I'd have a soaked shirt from this. :cry:

I just hope it didn't tweak the frame back there.

I don't get how people drive without indurance, cause a wreck and usually just get a slap on the hand.

Form all OUTWARD signs here, he's likely dealing with an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT, which with our fantastic, ever more liberal leaning public entities, means you can't punish some one with no means to help themselves. :alien:

Never mind that said DRUNKEN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT shouldn't even BE driving, much less NEEDING to have insurance, in the first damn place! :evil:

I'd say so :cry: yet I'd bet it could be straightened out,problem there is finding a competent frame man. They are in short supply here.

Ill find out when the bed comes off. The bolts are all bent or pulled through on the bed mounts. So im hoping thats the problem. The rear axle is also bent. A buddy has one so not a big deal on that part.

Man, how fast was she moving?
That's pretty notable damage.

Seeing your truck damage, and the bad day you had, makes my day to-day pale by comparison.
To say it started out bad, then went to TOTAL schit would be an understatement.

Still, it's nothing compared to yours.
