I have a 23 with a bent chassis due to an altercation with a gutter i have bought a modified cross member which will enable me to adjust the lower control arms in and out. The problem i have is when i pull the chassis back into line how do i hold the body to stop it from moving as well.
If anybody has done this could you please tell me how you did it.
Thanks in Advance

dyna bolts, a big chain, and a very strong jack... like 15t jack from a truck.
thats how i bent mine back...
it really depends on where the chassis is bent...
i wrapped the chain through my engine mount and jacked the car up on that one side and bent it back... just make sure ur doors are open... cause my front guard moved back onto the door and chipped the paint
