I am wanting to buy a friends 91 Chevrolet 1 ton crewcab. But the frame has broke right behind the motor mounts on both sides of the frame. It still is holding together some how, and you can see where it had broke before and was just welded back to together. I was wondering if it could be fixed permently by fishboneing it or boxing the frame there, are posibly cutting the front out the frame off under the cab and welding in a new front peice. I would it just be easier to get a whole nother frame.

The truck has a 6.2 desiel in it so I know there is a lot of weight on the front end. I looking for good segestions on fixing it, if it can be fixed.
