One more thing...if you have a frame that's slightly bent it can be 
straightened, but media blast it and check closely for rust and cracks where 
the lower A-arms inner pivot attaches to the frame. 
The cracks are common and difficult to see. Many years with an out of balance 
wheel can cause cracks besides the impact that caused the bent turret. 
These frames rust from the inside out. Media blasting can reveal pin holes you 
will not otherwise see and the cracks.

How does one update the front suspension in that manner? I have a very 
soild TR3 frame with a twisted RH turret. 

Since I must have that repaired, is it worthwhile to upgrade?
