Tip of frame bent
So this is the truck that I working on, the front tip of the frame from the drivers side was a bit bent. I didnt know it was bent until I took off the bumber. I took a tourch with a propane tank to light it up. You can see where I took a 20lb Sledge hammer and fixed the problem. "Sort of" Before I hit it, figure B was touching the steering box. On the second picture Figure A You can see the tear drop on the frame where the sway bar would bolt up. I think it was to much heat or just to much of a hammer I used. The touch is not a small flame, It's the kind the city would used to take paint off the ground. I cant fix it with that. Do anyone think thats a big deal to work with?

Re: Tip of frame bent
Looks to me like you just need the proper tool. It appears that someone hooked a chain to the hole in the frame and tugged it out of shape.
