Update:

Now entering the fourth week with out my wife's truck, the insurance company found a donor frame and it is being shipped to the body shop.

Should arrive here on Thursday.

The ml it is coming from was totaled by a "high hit".

The body shop advisor said they will put it on their frame jig and use a computer to measure and confirm it is within specifications.

Hopefully all will be well and after a full week of shop work (30-40 hrs) we will have the truck back.

(With all the hassle makes you wonder if one would be better off driving a 19 year old escort and not care what happens to it.)
