I don't know what you have planned, or what the shipping would be(even if it's possible) but I have this from a 95 SR with no rust on the frame to speak of... quite a sad sight.

It was cut before and after the major components needed for the rear axle swap.

I haven't started taking the components off of the frame yet but I do know the frame has no rust and it's from an SR that only had 78K miles on it when it rolled last year and went to a wrecking yard up here in Hamilton, Ontario.

Lemme know what you think.

PM sent. Looks like the frame in that pic has been cut right where I need to replace the rear section on mine. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

PM'd back.

Sadly the rest of that frame has gone to the crusher. Thanks for calling the yard up there fhuzz <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I am currently talking to the yard in Kings Mt NC about the frame on the SR they have there. This is the same truck that Sparky got his GenII locker from <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I'll let you know what happens <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I looked on carpart.com for a '95 SR rear axle assembly and see that there is a truck in Benson and one in Zebulon - both near you. You might want to give those yards a call.

Thanks Frank. I'll check them out <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Any updates on your frame? I picked up a stick welder a week ago and need something to practice on. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />

That would not be the thing to practice on. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

It's on my list. I found a frame not far from here. The yard wouldn't let me cut off the section I wanted myself, but said they would do it for $150 (another place wanted $300 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />). Then last week I was in the local LKQ looking for a Miata relay and found a '94 Montero LS with a nice looking frame. They said I could cut the frame off myself. They only want $75 and will throw the gas tank in for free if I remove the fuel pump <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I'm going to try and get there this weekend. If not I'll have to take a vacation day to get this done.

Enjoy your stick welder. ChrisJ is right, your not coming near my truck with it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I will update soon with some progress...

A product I have had excellent results with is OSPHO. About $25/ gal and it goes a long way compared to POR 15. You should coat it after, either paint or oil. I try to use 90 weight cause it works longer than oil even after thinning with diesel (but it'll stink for a week). A quart of Ospho will do it with 1/2 left over. Remember to insert a tight fitting tube inside the frame at least a foot long before you weld, maybe even a few plug welds at each end of the splice fittings. Hope this helps you.
