Would love to find such a frame repair kit. Just picked up an ‘89 xlt 4x4 Lariat that I’d like to restore, and first thing we run into is a cracked frame, right at the steering box, and the main wire harness completely chewed through by a teething dog...

Check your states inspection standards as to what type of repairs they will accept.
