Repair shop needed near Glasgow Mt. for front end work

I was returning home from a 2 mo trip out west when my right front tire blew and my front end dropped at 60 mph. Lower A arm is on the ground. I had all I could do to keep it on the road. I don't know If I hit something or what it happened suddenly. When I came to a stop there was a fire in the field behind me, tried to put it out with my fire extinguisher to no avail and the fire was spreading fast. Called 911 and police an fire truck came and put out the fire. It was a scary experience. Called my insurance co for a tow and they could not find anyone. MH is still in the side of the road. Called Thompson & Sons@ and he could not help and told me even if he could he could not work on it for 10 days. Does anyone from the area know of a truck repair shop that can work on a P-30 front end? Waiting for the insurance adjuster to call this morning hopefully with some help.

Insurance agent called back and no shops in town could do work. So they are towing it 250 miles to Great Falls MT, and even then they could not work on it for 2 1/2 weeks. So I will have to drive back to Ct and fly back to Mt when it is completed. This has been quite a trip.

Insurance company is willing to possibily pay full value instead of helping you tow it? Wow. Document calling them and what Thompson said.

I thought I was going to roll it into to ditch. I spent $3500 to rebuild the front end 2 years ago including a new lower A arm and ball joint. I still can't figure out what happened. I think my wife is done with MH's.
