I can't tell you how many times I've heard "Once the frame is bent, it will never be right again..." so I'm completely flabbergasted every time I see you guys do this. It's one of my favorite things to watch you do. Maybe sometime you will talk us through the process a little bit more... stressing and then relief hits and whatnot. Anyway... you guys always seem to pull of the "impossible". So glad you share your work with us.
Pulling this frame is not an acceptable repair for such a new vehicle,If it was my vehicle and it was that new and low mileage,I would not accept this repair.Then again these are the same guys that took a Chevy frame that was bent From a fire not from an accident used it anyway even after the temper was out of the steel ,to the point it sagged down and the bent it back.This is the only way they can fix these destroyed vehicles and make money.The worst part is these vehicles compete on the Used market with your nice clean one owner , never wrecked and straighten out truck.These trucks were designed to pull heavy Trailers for hundreds of thousands of miles this frame will not do that it will fatigue and crack because of the impact and pulls put on it. These guys are scabs, They don’t fix things right if you want to see something fixed right ,you have to watch Vehcor
I would say 95%of the time we section things in frame,uni body rails,dog leg,b piller,a piller have done a lot of rear clips in my time....as long as it's done properly and sealed from elements it will last as long as rest of the car/truck. But you do. Have a lot of hack job shops out there and people who are cheap.if you can't afford to do it right the first time where are you going to find time and money to do it over?.... awesome job guys I like the fact you go to salvage yards and get used parts that you are not just panel hangers.you don't save money using dealer parts even with a shop discount it will put you above budget and cut into your profits because you have to get paid to your labor isn't free....👍👌✌️🇺🇲🇺🇸
Looks great, I personally would weld in some long bars inside the frame rails to reinforce the sections from support square bar in front to the rear one.
Ivan, the splice is the right way to go, but the trouble is you make it look sooooo easy and it is not, that's pro's for you doing a fantastic job as usual. Just another day at the shop for you guys. Looking forward to the next episode......👍👍👍
Ivan in my opinion you did a great job with the frame machine and welding. So good that I wouldn’t hesitate in buying it if I was in need of a good truck.
Thanks for sharing the great job of straightening, cutting and welding the new chassis part. All with great precision. I already told you, the chassis, that is your specialty. 👍
Working the magic....once again. Fascinating to say the least on these frame jobs and with all of the wiring and lines everywhere. A headache for lots of us, even when at your age! Will be watching to the end for another complete resurrection of the four wheel kind.
Great job on the truck frame Ivan. Just like new only us 6,000 plus viewers will know, plus those that view after me. The bed really fits perfect. Once painted no one will know except us guys. Good job on choosing the bed Michael.
The splice on the frame looks good as a lot of us. I think you should add a reinforcement on top of the weld of course in the inside for good measures, maybe a diamond style. But it is going to look great BTW keep it the original color. Keep up the good work guys take care. Thanks 😊
Ivan, you don’t have to drop the gas tank for that leaf spring bolt. Just move it in enough to cut the bolt head off with a saws-all then put the new bolt in the other direction.
That’s bad advise. Why do you think that the bolt is faced out in the first place? If you got hit in that spot the end of the bolt would rupture the fuel tank.
My son just did a 90-hour welding class. Basically welding all day every day. His instructors said if a weld is done correctly, it becomes stronger than the surrounding metal.
Great job Ivan! I too agree with many of the comments below. You definitely should sister across the weld repair if possible. Suggest top and bottom most important for vertical loads, potholes and bed loads.
I would highly recommend it as well. With the aft spring mount behind the weld, it will put a tremendous amount of stress on that joint (especially when you tow something) and it could easily fail with a load. Better to be safe than sorry IMHO.
What does Ford say about welding high strength steel. I know many frames are stamped all over with "do not drill" because it weakens the heat treating. Nice job so far.
I think you guys do good work. I like the creativity. I will be the one to raise my hand and say that is not an oem or back to oem repair no matter how much the word one gets thrown around. But its a salvage truck and its yours so you can do Whatever you want with it. Sonetimes the beauty of rebuilding cars is you DONT have to follow the oem 😂
Awesome to see you guys doing another truck rehab! That F250 "Superduty" is really strange... such a light weight frame, and no factory hitch receiver, yet it has the Powerstroke?
Awesome repair work as always maybe some gussets on the straight cut might take away any possibly of the weld failures. Super vids always enjoy them keep up the good work 👍🇮🇪
I am impressed the way everything is coming together on your shop truck. All the best in your work. You certainly are not letting the grass grow under your boots. 😊

It's because Most RUclipsrs won't pull a frame out And Is welled it
You can bend them back but only once or they crack . Now high tensile frames you toss in the bin .

i like the section job but please put a reinforcement plate across the gap so that its stronger than factory
I’m starting a side business I bought my first project off Copart love it!! Thanks for the inspiration Ivan and Michael!!!
Great job Ivan 👏 on the framework. The new shop truck for the Niko Brothers. It's going to be great seeing the finished product 👌.
Buddy good job congratulations
That frame machine pays for itself over and over, great job!
Boy you have all the toys!
Great job
Great video, love your channel👍👍👍
Fantastic! Incredible talent. 👍🇬🇧
Good job, I was doubtful but you pulled it off!!
Nice job.
Very hard work completed well done 👍
Looks great, I personally would weld in some long bars inside the frame rails to reinforce the sections from support square bar in front to the rear one.
When you section a frame rail, you should always add a step down never a straight vertical cut also taper your ends so you get a good burn through.
They just want to sell it and make money. You should not have to tell them how to fix it right, i thought they know what they are doing. Guess not.
How many repairs have you guys done ?
Great job!
Good job boys, yellow is the right coller for the Bronco😊
Great video. Thank you. God bless.
Good advise regarding step down frame cutting and additional reinforcement plates.
Great job brother God bless
Great job Ivan splicing that in stronger and better than oem. You too Michael getting the new bed. Thanks John from Arizona

Yes it looks good
Aye nice one boys no ones gony know aw yess.
Frame machine is the boy aw good fae Scotland

Looking good 👍 from here 🥴

Perfect!! Exactly how I would of fixed it!! I have been doing rebuilders for decades now and driving them! Never had issues with any of my repairs!
Looks great. Always a pleasure to watch a Craftsman at work. Well done
Great job💯👍❤

You guys are masters with that frame machine. I love watching them come back into shape. Can't wait to see it drive down the road....Straight!
Great job on the Frame Ivan. You guys are awesome brothers.
Saludos desde Mexicali bajá California me gusta un chingo ver sus videos yo también compro en Copart ánimo
Awesome work
Ivan you sure do good work!
Great job man you guys make it look so easy
Yes replacing the frame is much harder cost more but it's more reliable
Great work .
Good job on the frame you can't tell it was wrecked like when you do .trucks
Very nice job looking good
It's so satisfying watching the frame being bent back keep up the good work
Like magic!
That was a great frame job well done 👏

@@peterstgermain1454 not if you cut the bolt flush to the nut. Done it many times.🤷🏽♂️

Great job! Came out perfect!
Great job, it is going to be a nice truck to own.
It is looking great to me. Great work guys. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Love your videos
Looks nice guys
Una passada ok buena reparacion🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Frame looks great. You guys do excellent work.
Gosh that’s amazing, good job
Cool to see you guys do this.
Great job Ivan! I too agree with many of the comments below. You definitely should sister across the weld repair if possible. Suggest top and bottom most important for vertical loads, potholes and bed loads.
That worked out perfectly! Great job boys!
Looks solid, I wouldn't expect any issues.
nice job as always ivan...... like new
Ivan outstanding progress on the frame repair! It won't be long and we'll see you doing a road test!
Hey Niko brother a nother great video on the shop truck and tow rig u guys put out the best content
Frame section will work just fine-everything back to factory specs-nice job !!!
I enjoy these truck rebuild projects. It’s interesting to watch your great work in making these wrecked trucks look like new again!
Awesome freaking videos guys!
The frame repair looks good
Maybe you should consider fish-plating your frame joint just for added strength and confidence.
frame looks dog leg on driver side
Yes the butt weld needs some plating.
I would highly recommend it as well. With the aft spring mount behind the weld, it will put a tremendous amount of stress on that joint (especially when you tow something) and it could easily fail with a load. Better to be safe than sorry IMHO.
Yeah, a bit of extra strength never hurts!
@@dougdeeds4552 id box the frame and get a mild lift kit with new rubber biscuits
What does Ford say about welding high strength steel. I know many frames are stamped all over with "do not drill" because it weakens the heat treating. Nice job so far.
Always love watching Ivan do frame and body work, looks great.
I think you guys do good work. I like the creativity. I will be the one to raise my hand and say that is not an oem or back to oem repair no matter how much the word one gets thrown around. But its a salvage truck and its yours so you can do Whatever you want with it. Sonetimes the beauty of rebuilding cars is you DONT have to follow the oem 😂
I am quite surprised in how well you have fixed that frame rail.
Awesome to see you guys doing another truck rehab! That F250 "Superduty" is really strange... such a light weight frame, and no factory hitch receiver, yet it has the Powerstroke?
It had a factory hitch assembly. He removed it
@@davidbryant3532 guess I missed that section of the last video 😅
Ivan you did a great job on the frame I would have not believe it if I didn't see it you guys do great work and a great video 👍
Awesome repair work as always maybe some gussets on the straight cut might take away any possibly of the weld failures. Super vids always enjoy them keep up the good work 👍🇮🇪
Great job guys.
looks like buckles forward of the part you cut off on the left side of the frame ?????
trabalho muito bom gosto de ver e aprender a usar as tecnicas de trabalho.
Great Splice! Do you think welding a plate over the joint would be a good idea?
Hi
Just some days work
👌
I am impressed the way everything is coming together on your shop truck. All the best in your work. You certainly are not letting the grass grow under your boots. 😊
