Frame

Hi . I am worried I might have bent my frame slightly. Does anyone have an idea of how to straighten it? Can a body shop do it?

If my frame isnt bent and it is just the bed would you have an idea what is wrong.. On one side of the truck the bed is flush with the cab and on the other it is in a little bit..

1) wrap a big cable around the frame
2) tie it to a tree
3) Drive Fast!!!



Ha Ha... J/K take it to a good body shop and they can hook it up to the rack for you and tell you what's going on with the alignment of your frame.

Not sure on the price though
