Im looking for someone who can replace the front end frame on my foxbody. Does anyone here specialize in doing such work? The engine is out and I have the replacement frame already. Im located in the East Bay.

Not the whole frame. Im pretty sure it only needs the section in front of shock towers.

yup, thats why my 89 is getting parted out. its one thing that the front subframe is bent, but my whole floor board is crinkled and cracked and my seat leans. and my door doesnt line up.

East Bay Frame and Axle on Doolittle near Davis would be my recommendation. But you may seriously consider another chassis.

Yes unibody. The front part of the body is the front frame. Shock towers, radiator support, etc. If it was the crossmember I would just replace it.
