Frame kit...

I am interested as well in the frame repair kit. I have located a kit in Dallas and am ordering it. I am curious, is this a bolt on kit, or is welding required also?

I have a 67 Ambassador. A true basket case! The separation in the rear is horrible indeed. The shell hangs helplessly about 3 inches above the floor. It sat like this at some deer lease for 10 years, flooded out several times and rusted the frame through at a few places. But the frame is surely bent aft of the axel, and very badly on the curbside. I suspect this side is worse because of the hot water heater. The wood was easy to remove as it was rotted away. I have it completely gutted now as it awaits my repair. I have no welding capabilities, and I cannot tow it at this time. A bolt on kit would be great. But it also seems to me that an opposing c channel bolted directly back to back to the channel area that is flexing would work nicely too. Any thoughts would be great…

Thanks…
