Chassis straightening, etc


Recommended Posts

Well I've started trying to get the front end straight on my car. Measuring from the firewall to the first bolt on the strut tower, I get passanger side 20 3/16", drivers side 20 3/8". I've tried jacking up the front corner to bring back the drivers side a bit so I can weld in temporary supports, the most it moved was about 1/32"...

 

I'm thinking that I will have to cut out the drivers side frame rail first, then position and brace the strut (temporarily) then weld in new rail. I had hoped to be able to straighten everything before cutting...

 

What type of procedure have the people that have done this used on their cars?
