    Aluminium Truck Frame Rails

    When the aluminium frames rails on my Mac gravel truck became weakened from electrolysis I scraped the truck, now I see from my buddy Rick I had another option.

    Rick has had his Kenworth since new, three million miles later the frame rails are now toast. Rather than scrap the truck he has jacked up the cab then unbolted everything from the aluminium rails then pulled them out from the rear. He had two new rails custom formed from a company in Edmonton, the blanks without holes $1100.00 each, Rick is using the aluminium rails as templates to drill the holes.

    Not a bad deal twenty two hundred bucks to save a truck.
