Hello
I am new to this forum and bought a 2004 Tacoma from a one owner in PA. The guy told me the Fran was not bad but it got here yesterday and the back 1/3 of the frame needs to be replaced. Basically from the spring mount in the front to the bumper. The truck runs perfect and shifts great but when I drove it yesterday just a few miles one of the springs broke. None of the shops I work with want to touch it. So I am looking for advice
Should I just send to an auction ?
Where can you source a frame and what would it cost to replace the whole frame ?
Or can you just replace rear half ?
Motor has 180 and runs excellent new catalytic and entire exhaust from manifolds back body is in great shape zero rust inside needs a overhaul.
Any help would be much appreciated
