Unibody rail cracked and twisted

Is that right in front of the forward leaf spring mount?

neocracka

Yes sir

MurderCityXJ

Do you have any other pics from a little further out so we can see the grand scale of how badly you borked this Jeep?

neocracka

I have severe rot out of the floor pans, I was thinking weld new pans inside, cut out that section and replace with 3"16 steel bent around existing rail to get contour and weld back in place, then take grinder with rust remover disc and grind of all existing rust on outside rails and weld new steel over it and do frame bars along sides for stiffeners and cross sections of steel across body from rail to rail

Cut your losses and part it out. It'll cost a small fortune to fix that right.

Sorry, but you're looking at junking that Jeep.

I can get all the metal i want from my wife's father, he works at the biggest steel mill in the Midwest here in Indiana, what's interesting, i just found a group of wires all messed up

Then why ask the opinion of those with experience when your FIL has a steel mill and you can fix it good?

neocracka

Because I'm asking if this was your jeep or someone elses, you had the resources, how would you fix it, do it right? I've never worked on the underbody of a car or jeep in my life. What other products would you buy? Like frame stiffeners from somewhere else rather then just using all metal from a steel mill?

MurderCityXJ

I would pull the parts you want to keep and scrap the entire thing. Unless you are planning on a chopped tube frame rock bouncer, but I'm doubting that is your plan based on how bad that rot is.... Time to find a new Jeep and get to wrenching

I wouldn't try to fix it. I have the skills and the resources, but it just is too far gone. Whether or not it was mine or someone else's. Too much work. Cut your losses and find a shell that somebody is parting out, and swap everything you want to keep over.

There's a reason everyone is telling you to junk it. Because it's junk.

This is also not a job for someone who's never tackled it before. Trust us when we tell you to let it go.

EDIT: One last thing...park that thing. Don't drive it, it is NOT safe.
