    Front end collision, Need help with repairs.

    so i recently got into a fender bender and i need to replace some framework on my 91 accord.

    Because the damage was light it is repairable, my question to you all is how do i remove my front bulkhead. The accident bent it completely out of shpe but luckily the chassis or any other major components weren't ruined besides radiator and AC.

        Im not even sure what the front bulkhead is. The rad support? If its light damage, strip everything, tie to to a tree, lightpost, utility pole, etc and put it reverse slowly.

          I have lots of info, but you need to follow the rules first.

            He tried, but it only changes the first post header not the actual thread title in the forum index.

                well im sorry, but if you look up at the top you can clearly see i changed it to make subject as clear as possible. Now my very clear question was if anyone knew how to remove a front bulkhead on a 91 accord. It can get much more clear than that. The title now clearly states that i need help removing the bulkhead.

                The bulkhead is number 6 on this diagram

                  It looks like you have to drill out the spot welds

                      Bulkhead actually encompasses all the parts. The radiator support is tack welded to the side rails. You have to drill out all the tack welds to remove it.

                            There are tack welds all along the sides. Just look for dimples. There are quite a few of them where the support is joined to the side rails. You'll have to remove the bumper, headlights, etc. The welds aren't very easy to see but look close and you'll notice them.

                              are you trying to make it perfect or do you just want to fix it and make it look normal again?
