A friend of mine had a mishap involving a 25mph cart and a 10x10 fence post. No need for the "he's an idiot" comments please. I'm just trying to help get it straightened out... the piece that the front top strut mounts to, steering shaft, entire dash, ect, is bent. I'd say its 4 inches or so pushed up and back. We tried 2 5,000lb ratchet straps hooked to my truck and around the bent frame, cranking the ratchets. We got it straight but as soon as tension was released it bent back... we may have made an inch of progress but not nearly enough.
2 questions... Would a frame shop get it straight? Anyone have a spare rxv frame laying around?

If you can find a small shop, they may mess with it. My buddy's daughter hit a tree in his C.C. we took it to a friend that had a frame machine and got it straight.
Hi! I never thought that people who get into accidents were idiots. Sometimes we all can't cope with the management or can't navigate the situation. It's good if it's an accident like the one that happened to your friend. I've been in serious accidents on the highway several times. As a rule, the culprits of these accidents are men and women at a respectable age who probably should no longer drive a car. But legally, they still drive. Therefore, just in case, I have contacts of a reliable automotive lawyer who has repeatedly helped me prove my case in such situations.
