Continuing my quest to get my damaged truck on the road I fitted my new upper RH Mustang II suspension arm.
My new body parts,grille and bumper will be here next week.

I then realised there was something not quite right when I tried to align everything,it's then during further investigation I discovered the left hand upper and lower arms are bent/twisted too!
Oh...and a crack in the left hand chassis leg/boxing plate at the engine mount.
Obviously I had wildly underestimated the forces involved when you crash at 40+ miles an hour!

I should have checked everything more thoroughly.

I had (wrongly) assumed all the damage was confined to the right hand side.
Thankfully though the chassis itself is OK i.e. not twisted or bent so more $$$ spent and effectively replacing all the upper and lower control arms.

I've definately got this truck thing in my blood ... my DNA sequence has torque settings
