Hey Fellas,
Good news on my truck.....the insurance co. did a second evaluation and decided it was definitely worth repairing, thus no "salvage" title!
They are preparing to cut me a check so I can get on with the repairs. I picked up the left side i-beam/spindle at the salvage yard today. Will swap it out tomorrow so I can be mobile again while gathering parts and getting bids on paint work. Persistance has paid off! Yay!!!
