Default Seems there is a tilt in the kilt......

Everything looked fine until the bumper was attached.... the frame seems a bit twisted up on the passenger side......

Any suggestions from our expereinced audience...??? I know how Dirk took the curve out of his cab 12 with the back end of a dumpster........

I would like to put a leg under the frame on the driver's side and apply the weight of the front end of the 8000 pound tractor using the bucket....... but I am not sure if we should be disconnecting the spring packs or not....... it may mean removing the engine and removing both springs from the front end of the frame.....

Any suggestions....??? maybe we should consider taking it in town with the trailer and having a body shop put it on a frame machine......

.....or we just take enough air out of one tire that the truck will look level.......

Took two good men to get the bumper in place....
