Lux body Damage

Post by insane_1 »

I recently rolled my lux :bad-words: .. doing damage to just about every panel. Mechanically she seems sweet and we have pushed the roof back out, but there is damage to the pillars. Is it worth trying to straighten out and spending some money putting an exo on her or just trying to get a new body??

Any advice??

Then exo it.

Id be trying the wrecking yards to find a half decent cab. Or the forums. Or both.

How is it a 9inch lift??
