Default Im a new member and i need help with my frame

Hey guys,

Im new to the forums, Im a college student from ohio and i love monte carlos, always have and always will. Im looking for some help as im not very knowledgable in the chassis area of monte carlo's. I have an 86 monte carlo that got wrecked and the front of the frame appears to be bent just in front of the cross member under the engine. Does anyone have dimensions for the chassis so i could check to see how bad it really is? Thanks!


Sean

sounds like mine, i'm going to my parent's tomarow where my new front frame sectiom is sitting i'll take some mesurememts..

i origionally thought mine was just the font horn infront of the x member but the front horn was bent, behind the control arm and where it drops down to where it bolts to the body,

a sign i notice was my tire was a bit further back than the otherside, also had to put a spring spacer in to even the ride height out

any pics of your car/damage?
