SignUp Now!ok that makes sense if it was pulled through the frame. it happend to my GN and they dented the gas tank and spare tire wheel whell. how would i measure the points i have my measure tape handy.. thanksIt wouldn't hurt to measure all the points on it to verify that it hasn't been on a frame machine. I doubt thats what happened there but it never hurts to tape measure it .
i took a BFH to it before i had taken the pik. but i mainly pushed the cracks back in a little and i didnt hit it to much i was trying to see if it would just make a difference. i dont remember hitting in from under though, just the side.. i noticed the scratch marks on the underside of the lower a arm. i did wire brush the tear area a bit to get a better look.. pass side looks just fine and so does the rear no signs of pull marks which i woulod have figured if it did it to that end it would of done to the other end as well.. hmmmm what to do. i just want to make sure I measure it right.If that was a tie down, or pull point, the metal would have been ripped downward, not back up into the cavity. [Unless it was originally torn down, and then beat back, that is.] NE BFH marks?? The way it's caved in behind the hole, it looks to me as tho someone ran over something. See the deep scratch marks?
If it checks out measurement wise, I'd heat the torn areas, bend them into place, and weld it. I'd then plate it. Done deal, and you have a nice jack pad.
What does the pass side look like?
If it was pulled on a frame machine, [or tied down on a transporter], I'd think both sides would show some indications of that being the case.
