Champ Frame Straightening Equipment was founded in 1981 and was the first company to offer a complete post-based system for uni-body repair. While other companies were importing their (expensive) technology from Europe, Champ was being innovative by combining the newer holding with existing pulling and tie down equipment. Floor pull systems had the advantage of quick and easy pulls at a low price. Over the years Champ has expanded to include a comprehensive line of products to increase productivity in all aspects of collision repair.
