Freightliner stepping away from cracked frame rail.

It's a 3/16" plate, with a single 90* bend on the bottom. Fit to the outside of the frame. The side goes all the way to the top.

 

Yes...........


I have to open it up again when it warms up to paint it with POR 15. I'll take pictures then.

 

Mechanic worked on it for 6 hours.

I opened it up and closed it up to save labor.

I purchased all the parts and he ordered them.

I don't expect it over $600.

Total cost should be under $1000. Bolts alone for all gr 8 stuff was $50.

 

I learned of POR15 from www.yotatech.com

Folks there are using it on their frames in both brush and aeresol forms.

I personally have never used it yet, but the results that folks were showing there, convinced me when the time was right, I'd use it.

I think that time is now.

Shows you how to do it.

You still have to prep the area you want to do.

Only place I know of to get it is off the website.

I have never used it myself before either.
