Are you 1000% SURE he swapped the frame only and not the body?
It would be very easy to pull your body off and place it onto another rolling chassis that was in better shape than yours frame rot wise but had 200,000 more miles on it than yours did.

Default frame

It was frame. I saw it get delivered. When he lifted everything off I saw old/new frames side by side.

He then reassembled everything back on to new frame.

Default i probably did

I probably still did get screwed.

I don't believe in coincidences.

No bearing hub problems and not three amigos before switching frames. First day driving with new frame i hear grinding off and on. Continues for a few days of light around town driving. My wife hear big crunch while driving, gets three amigos, and we take it straight to shop.

The frame job must somehow connect to the hub failure.

No?

On the bright side the air suspension finally fixed. It was the valve next to the compressor. Slow leak. New valve all is well.
