Biggggg Problem!!

I have an 89 blazer and was tearing the carpet out to weld some sheet metal on the floor due to holes being in it. I then discovered that the frame was rotted as well and that i would have nothing to weld the patches to. Is there anyway to save my truck???? Please post any suggestions that you may have i would appreciate it alot!! Thanks!!

wow, that sucks. Maybe find a donor truck you can use the frame off of? As long as the cab/truck is salvageable, you can find another frame in good shape to use. DMV goes by the VIN on the cab.

If you need a frame, I'll have one available in a month maybe less. I don't know where you are so I don't know if it is feasible for you.

Are you talking about the floor braces? The body is not welded to the frame.
