Frame Straightening
in Linden, NJ
After a collision, a bent frame quietly throws off your alignment, wears your tires unevenly, and compromises the crash protection built into your car. At our Linden shop, our I-CAR and OEM-certified technicians measure your frame with computerized equipment and pull it back to factory spec — with a free written estimate before any work begins.
What's Included in Our Frame Straightening Service
Performed by I-CAR certified technicians at our Linden shop
Computerized Frame Measuring
Computerized measuring compares your frame to factory specs point by point, so we know exactly what moved and by how much.
Structural Damage Assessment
A full inspection of the frame, unibody, and crumple zones to find hidden damage a visual check will miss.
Hydraulic Frame Pulling
Anchored to a frame machine, we apply controlled hydraulic force to bring the structure back into alignment.
Unibody & Full-Frame Repair
We straighten modern unibody cars as well as older full-frame trucks and SUVs.
Factory-Spec Restoration

Printed measurements confirm the frame is back within tolerance — proof for you and your insurer.

Frame Straightening FAQs — Linden, NJ
Straight answers from our Linden body shop team
Frame straightening typically runs $600–$1,200, though severe structural damage can cost more once the measuring is done. We provide a free written estimate before any work begins, and if you're filing a claim it often falls under your collision coverage.
Common signs are the car pulling to one side, uneven tire wear, doors or the hood not lining up, or visible bends in the frame rails. The only way to be certain is computerized measuring — bring it to our Linden shop for a free inspection.
Most unibody and full-frame vehicles can be measured and pulled back to factory specification on our frame machine. If the damage is beyond a safe repair, we'll tell you honestly rather than put an unsafe car back on the road.
Yes. We handle the entire claims process and work with all major insurers, including GEICO, State Farm, Progressive, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, and USAA. Bring the car in to our Linden shop and we take care of the paperwork.
It is risky. A misaligned frame throws off your steering and tire wear and reduces the crash protection engineered into the car. Our I-CAR and OEM-certified technicians document the before-and-after measurements so you have proof the frame is back within factory tolerance.
