Parts are already on order and they'll start sanding it down next week. They're saying 4 or 5 weeks to complete. This will be easy to work in with the other winter projects at least. Some shops can take a long time on paint jobs.
I beefed up the rear frame rails when I rebuilt them with heavier gauge metal. That probably helped take some of that impact. The crossmember had some dented areas where the brackets dug in but nothing very bad. The frame rail tabs held it pretty straight.
