How Do You Plan on Straightening my Car’s Frame?

Let’s start with the basics. A frame straightening machine basically operates in this way… it uses hydraulics and chains to pull the distorted frame of your vehicle back into its original shape. To be able to repair a vehicle's frame using a frame straightening machine, the vehicle will be raised up on the platform and fixed in place.

Here at Arrow Body and Fender, we are excited to feature our Star-A-Liner frame Unibody rack. What it does is reshape your frame back to its original shape. This will allow us to fix most vehicles that we encounter in Chicagoland. People have been coming to Elmwood Park for seventy years for auto body repair.

Alignment Problems after an Accident.

The process of aligning a collision-damaged vehicle is much more involved than performing a traditional maintenance alignment.  If you haven’t hit anything, the technician can make many assumptions.  However, making assumptions about a collision-related four-wheel alignment will put some shops on a crash course.

The first step is to realize that alignments for collision-damaged vehicles aren’t the same as those performed for consumer maintenance alignments.  Once again, if you haven’t hit anything, then many assumptions can be made by the alignment technician.  Suspension parts and structural areas haven’t moved, been damaged or been repaired.

Knowing how to provide various services is the job of a great auto body shop.  When your family has been in this game for over seven decades you get pretty good at it!  We are Arrow Body and Fender located at 7536 W. Grand Ave. Elmwood Park.  We have been one of the very best and most reliable shops in Chicagoland since the late ‘40s.  Call us at (708) 456-9424.
