well my family's luck with cars continues. This evening my wife had to swerve in the 90 laredo to avoid being hit by some schmuck in Land Rover. She is okay, that is the most important thing.
The rig really is lucky too. My wife hit the curb and a light post in the deal, and if it had to get hit, I do not think she could have it in any better spots, all things considered.
But... the passenger tire got popped, the fender messed up, and the real problem is the axle lca mount. It got seriously bent... looks like one spot might be separated/separating from the tube. I will try to take pics and post them tomorrow in case that helps.
So, anyone know what it would take to fix this? I do not have the skill to cut it off and weld it on myself. How much would something like this cost?
Should I just look for a replacement D30 with 3.55's and swap it out? This is the route I am thinking of going, because I know I could do it myself.
Any suggestions?
So, the 31" Daytons I had up for swap are no longer available, and I also got 2 new BFG AT's tonight because of this-- $99 each at Costco.
Thanks.
