Is that all of the frame damage? If so, you would probably be better off to straightened and reinforce those parts and be done with it.

I think there is more frame damage than just the mounting tabs.
Like TripleB said, if you have a way of comparing with another buggy and check some dimensions it might be easier/cheaper to just reinforce that section vs swapping out a frame section 🤷‍♂️

Where you hooked to the control arms or just got hung up on something? That's crazy it ripped it off like that. Where abouts in Florida?
Had it hooked to a ball on the hitch. Highlands by Marion oaks. It was in some nasty mud for sure. Tundra in 4 low snatching it wouldn’t budge it. Idk if it was on something in the mud or just a mud wall. It was 3am so not think the best and just trying to snatch and pulled the arms right off bolt through the metal. I couldn’t believe snatching it did that. Ended up having to winch from the front for awhile to get it out.

It bent the left side as well. When replacing the axles I noticed the an arms don’t line up at all. The whole back frame is outta wack.

Its happened with this group a time or two :rolleyes: 🤣

what pulled you out?
Of course we get bad stuck when it’s a weekend riding with just one buddy. Any other time we have plenty of people.tried winching it with a rzr backwards…. Didn’t do much. Tried to snatch it backwards with a 4x4 tundra which I think is when the damage started. Snapped 3 axles by this point. Finally ended up winching it from the front through some saw grass. Hindsight if we would have worked it more from the front we probably would’ve saved a lot of damage. Still surprised how it managed to mangle the arms and tabs like that without coming out. Makes me think it was hung up on something.
