    Frame rail

    As i posted before, I have a 99 GM gs that has some frame rot. I'm looking into having it repaired and I was wondering what is a good price for a rail? I found a complete frame from a 05 crown vic for $350, is that a good price? How much should i look to spend for either the section I need or the entire rail/frame?

    03-11 frames are completely different, you would need a 98-02 frame.
    major welding and alignment required to replace a large chunk of the frame.
    show us some pics of the rust so we can advise better.
