Bent frame

Found out that my "70" has a bent frame. The rear axle and all the rest of the componets are kicked to the right side. Has anybody delt with this before? Is it worth the $200 to get it back somewhat in line? Any heads up?

Sounds like a good excuse to subframe it to me. :) Throw some 22.5 Mickey Thompons back there. :)

Cool. I had that money set aside for other things, but oh well.

Yeah, but I would rather have a 572 turning them over. This 305 does'nt have the tourque to push them forward.
