FRAME REPLACEMENT

[marklc]

HAS ANYONE FOUND A PLACE BESIDE MATKINS (WHO WON'T RETURN PHONE CALLS OR E-MAILS) THAT SELLS/FABRICATES NEW REPLACEMENT FRAMES? I'VE BEEN SEARCHING LIKE CRAZY AND HAVEN'T FOUND ANY.

THANKS,

MARK :blink:

I was at Wild Horses a year or so ago and they had a couple stacked in the shop. I don't know if they are for sale but you can call them.

ALREADY CONTACTED JBG AND THEY WERE SELLING THE MATKINS FRAME BUT NO LONGER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. APPARENTLY THEY WEREN'T FILLING ORDERS OR RETURNING PHONE CALLS. I EVEN TRIED CALLING THEM DIRECTLY AND GOT NO ANSWER.

THANKS FOR THE REPLY THOUGH!

I too have been trying to get a hold of matkins extreme with no luck.

How am I supposed to drop a 460 onto a stock frame without twisting it in half... :blink:

.......I need that super tough matkins extreme!!!!!

What other options do we have?

I sucks because I am going to replace everything I can with new rust free parts and I'll have an old repaired frame that will still probably be rusting on the inside!

Build your own. Get 2x4 or 2x6 square tubing and build it using your old frame as a template. It would give the strengh of a completely boxed frame and you would know what you have. You could also build in the strength where you want it and not where someone else does. It also gives you the versatility of either relocating things (i.e. spring hangers, support hangers, etc.) but it also gives you opportunity to have a completely clean frame.
