body- frame question [problem from small collision]
Hey all,
my 99 Honda Civic [sedan] was recently involved in a small collision (will need a new driver's side fender, bumper, and left headlight assembly) ----
The damage is mostly superficial - except - upon closer inspection to the inside, we've noticed that the frame is "pushed over" and rubbing on the power steering pump pulley ! [ Strange sounds when in "Drive" and noticeable smell ] (not currently driving it) So it's more complicated.
We were planning to take it somewhere - but were thinking, since that is all we notice that went wrong -
call us a little crazy.. but we have a possible solution:
Would it be plausible to put a long board on the frame, and beat it straight?
thinking of economical but safe solutions, had to post this.
Greatly appreciate any advice you all have.
Thank's so much!
