I dont have priveleges to post in the classified section, but I am at a lost. I purchased a 1999 Yukon. I made several posts about steering issues that I had. The steering problems have been solved with new axle, new front tires and wheel alignment. The problem with the new tires is the passenger side rubs the fender on right turns. I noticed that the tire on the passenger side sits further back in the well than the driver's side. I took it to the shop this morning only to find out the chassis is bent. I have put all my little savings into buying and repairing this truck. The motor and trans are good. It has nice wheels. I don't want to put this burden on anyone else, but I am considering selling the car for parts only or parting it out. The title was clear, not salvaged. I am pissed. I really can't store it anywhere for parts, but if someone is interested in the whole vehicle for parts only, give me your best offer.
99 Yukon F/S??? MAYBE PARTS ONLY

+1 You just need to find the rite guy. I would invest a little more before starting over with a new truck.

Good luck, but you cant sell it on here until the 80 post rule. Apologize, but see if it can be pulled enough just to drive...save the hassle, much less loss.....

x4 on the body shop. you would be amazed when they can do with some trashed frames.
I took it to a body shop an yesterday. I am looking at 7-800 to straighten it out. I'm gonna check around to see if I can find a better deal.
I left the body shop and went to the tire shop. They had a pair of factory wheels there. I wanted to know if we could do an exchange for my 18's. The owner agreed but it was close to closing. I go to leave there and guess what happens next? The car wouldn't start.
I had to replace the starter last night. I haven't even tuned the Kon up yet. I did bend the fender back on the passenger side to clear the tires. It is barely noticable. No rubbing now.
I still need to replace front shocks. I'm gone to do a little at a time. I do like the tuck. I will find a better price on the straightening, and get that done by winter. The Kon still rolls on.
Thanx for all the imput. I was ready to put it to rest

Check out your local Tech schools(comm. colieges,etc) sometimes they will do repairs like this and only charge you for parts.It is easiest if you happen to know or be related to a student.
