Cite at least four things that must be considered when trying to determine whether to use a recycled or new unit for performing a frame sectional replacement.

What will be an ideal response?


PREVIOUS REPAIRS: Any incorrect repairs made by the unknown repair facility are likely to become your responsibility if they fail in the future.
VEHICLE OPTIONS AND MOUNTING BRACKETS: The vehicle may have had a different engine and transmission and drive train, therefore some of the necessary mounting brackets may not be attached or may have to be moved. The recycled frame may have undergone the mid-production year change, thus altering it in some manner. CORROSION: Excessive corrosion may be yet another issue with which the shop, insurance company, and the vehicle owner must be concerned.
PREVIOUS MODIFICATIONS: One other important consideration is modifications that may have been made to the replacement part such as adding reinforcements for attaching a snow plow or other equipment such as a trailer hitch. One must determine whether the replacement frame is adequately sturdy or structurally sound enough to return the vehicle to the same function level it once had
