Here is what my Engman Long Kit ended up looking like courtesy of our favorite postal employee's. Worst thing is they dropped it off and ran before I could look at it. Just to be clear, Engman has no fault it this and I will continue to buy his products. However I may reconsider my shipping options. It's amazing that they were able to bend 5 sheets of metal like that. It looks like some wheel went over the middle of it.

So the question is, can they - or even should they - be rebent and made to work?

That will be a tough one without some cutting...

But...put it up in the air...get a screw driver and a small hammer and gently tap the screw driver along the bottom edge of the long from under the car...

If you cant get to the outside part...the part after the seam...you may have a problem that cannot be checked without cutting...

Now that being said...there are some pretty cool cameras out there in the medical proffesion and one of the local guy here told me they had one at his shop...

You could snake a camera down there between the long and the rocker to take a look.
