Our Frame Repair Process
Identify Damages
We begin the process with a complimentary damage assessment, followed by the development of a comprehensive repair plan and pricing estimate.
Prep & Teardown
Once the vehicle is securely positioned on the hoist, utilizing jackstands for technician safety, we proceed to remove all components situated near the damaged area. This includes, but is not limited to, brake lines, fuel lines, the fuel tank, along with any crossmembers or skid plates.
Cleaning
Once the damaged area is readily accessible from both sides, the corroded steel is removed using a plasma cutter, and the remaining steel is sandblasted to ensure proper weld penetration.
Fabrication
New 1/8" plate steel is fabricated to mimic the original geometry of the frame and weld directly into the stock frame without affecting routing of any cables, lines, or suspension geometry.
sealing
The newly fabricated steel is coated with an underbody epoxy, similar to that used on heavy-duty industrial equipment such as semi-trucks, garbage trucks, and dump trucks. This protective coating safeguards the new steel from road hazards, including salt, stones, and other debris. The frame's interior is coated with Fluid Film, which penetrates existing rust and prevents further corrosion through hydrophobic capillary action.
