Question WTB: 01-04 Lightning roller, flood, recovered theft
Hello All.
I am looking for an 01-04 Lightning roller, flood or recovered theft/stripped truck. The frame in mine is very bent and I want to swap everything over. Prefer it not to be black (that is what I have now) or true blue, but will consider all colors. Salvage title is ok. Let me know what is out there. Thanx

I've been looking into that also, can not find anything local, plus the time and effort involved would be even greater. Plus I would not mind having a different color. But I am still looking into it.

Is the damage on the front or back of your frame?

Mostly on the front. It is twisted and has kinks on both sides in multiple places.

because the frame is actually two pieces, the back half of the frame is the same on all the 97-03 trucks, just the front is different lengths depending on cab length. So keep that in mind too.

in the center under the cab, there are a bunch of large rivets, you can actually see that there are two different pieces stacked and then riveted together. Sorry i dont have any good pics to show right now.
