get you a good steel flatbed, rear axle, springs and hangers and you will probably have 4K in it, if that, steel flatbed is 800-900, rear axle is about 800 from a decent junkyard, all the rest of the stuff isnt that much to buy new either.....if you got plenty of tools and a good garage and some buddies to help you, it can be road ready in 1 weekend IF the frame dont need straightened.......

 

I thought about it.

Bite your tongue brother. I think I am safe. It was the u-bolts that broke, which I believe saved the frame.

I did not hit the pole squarely which was also a saver.

Only the guy from the body shop says he sees a bent outer axle sleeve. Everyone else says that they do not see it. I don't see it but it would not suprise me if I have issues with the inner axle.
