"Old Ugly" in Hospice

Yep, had a major fenderbender today, with "Old Ugly". The old hunk of iron is not dead, the heart still beats strong, just a bent front axle hub assy and a bent spring. However, the insurance company has not weighed in on the matter. I am at a loss as what to do after all the work that has been done over the last couple of years. I have no truck and the repair is dependent on availability of new Springs and the condition of the front axle or availability of a replacement axle assembly. I can no longer do the heavy work nor crawl around on hands and knees. It is a conundrum to say the least. I am very thankful that no one was hurt. GregH
