Frame

Frame damage is common in a big collision. Most of the time we can repair or replace the frame. It is repaired by putting the vehicle up on one of our frame racks and pulling the the frame striaght. With assistance of hydraulics and a computer laser measuring system, we can get the vehicle back to factory specifications.

Here is one of our frame racks. In the front are 3 of the hydraulic posts used to pull the frame and sheet metal that cannot be worked by hand.
This is the laser apparatus used. It shoots a laser across the underside of the vehicle, hitting targets that hang off the frame letting us know within a millimeter tolerance.
