straightened some yes, repaired?
I use my equipment such as my loader dozer and backhoe together to straighten or bend things, but they do not do the repairs.
Notice in the video how the trailer lurches when the deck has almost been straightened. at that point 1 of more crossmembers broke from the strain of being straightened the rear repairs will be welding and reinforcing them. Once something has been bent and straightened it is weaker unless supported or retempered
Tofu dreg repair job...
Quick! Before the boss see it!
The guys at the demolition derbys do it the best. Watching them straighten out cars so they can get back in is the best part of the whole event. I watched a couple guys straighten out some old wrecked sedan by wrapping a chain around one of the frame rails, then attaching the other end to some old half ton pickup. They then took off at full speed away from the car, until the chain ran out, using the truck like some kind of makeshift slide hammer. They did they a few more times to pull the tail end of the car back into shape, then got back in the race. It was glorious.
Now that would be a video worth watching!!!Quote:
