Frame & Structural. Back to Spec.
Free
A straight frame is the foundation of a safe repair. We measure the structure against factory specifications, pull it back into alignment on the frame rack, and only then start on panels and paint — so doors close right, tires wear evenly, and the car drives straight.
- Structural measurement against OEM specifications
- Frame rack pulls for unibody and full-frame vehicles
- Sectioning and replacement where the manufacturer requires it
- Alignment coordination after structural work
