i was selling my truck to a friend under a purchase contract. he defaulted and i took it back. i guess sometime last august he somehow side swiped a curb in the front right tire. broke the wheel, lower control arm, strut mount, and bent the shock. we replaced all that and i took it into the shop for an alignment. the front right going in was at 3.4* postive camber and caster is all off. the shop maxed out the specs. its sitting at 1.8* positve while the left is sitting perfect on a 2.7" front lift on bilsteins. i filed a claim under my insurance and they are investigating into who is going to cover the cost cuz the d-bag didnt file under his own. the shop said that more then likely the frame is bent where the lower control arm mounts. my truck is 09 sport cc 4X4. does anybody have any experience with frame damage on their truck and what was the outcome? i was thinking probably 6 grand for frame repair but i read another post where it cost over 16k just for the frame replacement?
im waiting to hear back from the insurance company before moving forward with an estimate. also what would my truck be valued at before it is totaled?
doing used car estimate research my truck should be worth 21000 abouts. so i think anything above 60 percent of value it will be totaled and thats 12,600.
