Hey my name's Ed from DirtyBurgh. Can Anyone give me some pointers? I just bought this Step side 88' F-150. I don't have the money to pay someone to do it and just wondering if there is any other way.
My drivers side frame is twisted. I believe it was in a wreck and the whole arem was pushed back making the fram twist to stay. Is there something I can do to fix that?

Lot's of chain, strong anchors and a heavy duty come-along? That's how the poor man does it. It may never be perfect, but it'll get you close. Assuming youre not trying to restore it to museum quality....?

get yourself some good heavy chain good anchors and a ratchet type chain hoist. or borrow a porta-power if you can get ahold of one. take some very careful measurements off a straight truck and you should beable to make it work

O. and one more thing to anyone reading this post. I cam into conflict with a club called Xtreme Trail Riders Club. Username-(xtremeelements) They are located in south west Pa. They resulted in insults on me and on my site. Which I deleted some of the remarks on there. I just wanted to let people know about how immature they are and that they talk *** behind your back.. Just a friendly Heads up from DirtyBurgh. The members are very immature for a so called club of friends. No resect for other mudders
