68 front suspension bent

[Brandon T.]

Where can I get the tool to straighten the front suspension? Looks like somebody jacked it up using a floor jack and bent it.

Brandon, are you talking about the front cross member ,this is where the cars will sometimes get a floor jack placed and it bends the thin metal plate there?

Re: 68 front suspension bent

yes that is what I'm talking about. Somebody on the forum made a tool to straighten the cross member but I don't remember who it is.

Brandon, I have a tool to straighten the cross member, but it requires the removal of one of the coil springs. If you want to use it,I can mail it to you just cover the shipping. if so send me a PM with shipping. Ed

Ed, thanks for the offer, but I really hate to remove one of the coil springs unless I have to. That may be my only option but I thought someone designed a tool that did not require removing the coil spring. If I change my mind I will let you know.
