Frame Straightening

Frame Straightening in Pleasantville, NY.

When a car comes in after a wreck, the question isn’t whether we can fix it — it’s whether the fix will hold up the way the factory built it.

Why us for frame straightening

Frame check on every job.

  • Pulls and reshape – We apply hydraulic force to align your vehicle a millimeters at a time so the frame returns to factory geometry.
  • Welding and reinforcement. When necessary we cut, replace, and re-weld using OEM repair manuals — not generic body-shop habits.
  • Measurement and alignment. Final measurement and alignment are completed before cosmetic work begins. We perform a full four-wheel alignment to ensure the vehicle tracks straight and handles properly.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Some signs are obvious — uneven panel gaps, doors that don’t close right, the car pulling left or right. Others are only visible on the measuring system. We measure first; we don’t guess.

Sometimes — and we’ll tell you when. Frame work is expensive, and on older or lower-value cars the math doesn’t work. We give you the numbers and let you decide with your insurance.

If it’s straightened to factory spec and properly welded, yes — structurally. Most modern unibodies are designed to be repaired this way and the OEM repair manuals describe exactly how. We follow them.

Most jobs are five to ten business days. Complex unibody work can run longer if OEM parts are back-ordered. We give you a written timeline at the estimate.
