Bent & Twisted
We are trying to straighten the frame on a 2003 ds. I searched and read and tried to apply what I learned. Yes I know it will never be the same but it will be good enough, I hope. can some one tell me what the measurement is on center for the bumper bolt holes.

Re: Bent & Twisted
I will try to help. Not sure what your question is.
Is the frame diamoned, or is it up and down, or both? |

Re: Bent & Twisted
Do you see what I'm asking? Has the cart's frame been changed from a rectangle to a parallelogram? As in being hit hard on one side or the other at the front or back. This would create a situation we racecar guys call a frame that has been "diamoned" a parallelogram. If so, the distance between the 2 mainframe sections (the width) of the frame has changed.
As far as where you are holding the tape, and that rear crossmember is not bent, the center would be exactly 1/2 of your measurement. |

Re: Bent & Twisted
I think what he is asking is, what is the measurement between the bumper bolt holes, on center meaning from the center of hole to center of hole.

Re: Bent & Twisted
Yes that's the question. I have the broken weld lined up and have straighten the cross member and the right spring hanger. I don't knowwhat it should be but I am at 26 inches now.

Re: Bent & Twisted
If there for the bumper ? you can just measure the actual bumper itself holes C-C ? .
sorry for stating the obvious / or maybe its bent up too, or you dont have a bumper |

Re: Bent & Twisted
Looks like 26 and 1/8 to me. And that is center to center. Not hooking the tape the way you have it. (at least it appears hooked in the photo)
