My horse is in need of rear frame rail exntensions. Is this some thing that can be done in the average home garage? Or is a uni-body rack needed?

Thanks
Bill

It can be done at home if you have a good welder and alot of patience. Take good measurement of the existing rails from multiple points around the car for reference. Just make sure you cut the original rails back far enough to get into good metal to weld to.

Thanks Mike.

I think I'll see if I can find a shop with rack, just to be safe.
