In Reply to: OT Bent truck frame posted by Mark FL on July 21, 2008 at 18:50:45:
the older frames were mild steel, fairly easy to repair with the proper equipment and measuring systems. we have 2 chief ez liners here at my shop to repair frames, both conventional and unitized construction. like the other guys said, seek out a shop that can do the work, and have them measure it and give you a quote. from your description, the frame has quite a bit of sidesway to it. probably also sag and mash. take a walk around the back of the truck, measure the back bumper gap to the bed, rough measure, use your fingers. if they are equal distant on either side of the back bumper, chances are it does not have a diamond in it. even if, it is not that difficult to pull back straight. i'd have to hunt around thru my books for the frame specs for that one.
