Frame rail wavy

(1/1)

JaredD:
The left side of my truck frame is wavy on the bottom side but appears to be solid without any cracks - would you guys try to flatten it out or leave it?  I was considering using a large vice and some heat to straighten it out, but I'm considering leaving it as I'm thinking cosmetic rather than structural.  Thoughts?

JohnnyPopper:
I don't think it will compromise the structural strength in any meaningful way. I would let it go, when you have it all back together no one will know.

Rich84:
If you are talking about the lower part of the frame, it was made like that to make room for the humongous catalytic converter.
