From Providence to Cranston, Rhode Island collision shops use Chisum frame machines from Lombard Equipment to deliver factory-quality structural repairs.
In a market as compact and competitive as Rhode Island, collision shops win on reputation — which is built one properly repaired vehicle at a time using professional-grade equipment.
Lombard Equipment is proud to carry the Chisum line of frame machines — built by the inventor of the modern frame rack, Lavell Chisum. Chisum's original frame rack patent became the legendary Chief EZ Liner, one of the most-used frame systems in history. Today, the Chisum Workhorse, Bronco, and Bronco XL bring that same engineering legacy to the demands of modern collision repair — handling today's complex, high-strength vehicle structures with precision, speed, and reliability.
