Looks like you can get the frame dims for sure...good luck straightening the frame. I obviously don't know how it's bent, but the front 16" or so of the frame are replaceble hexagonal inserts. If they're the only parts kinked or broken (they're designed to sacrifice themselves to prevent severe frame damage), you could cut them out and weld in new ones.

OK, thanks to everyone who repiled.&nbsp\\; I went to the local dealership where i have bought all the parts and asked the guy if they had a service manual for the truck.&nbsp\\; Turns out the factory stoped sending them manuals in 2003 and only sent them cds.&nbsp\\; He pulled the cd out and found what i needed in chapter 13-10 just like cramerica&nbsp\\;said. I am taking it to a guy that has a automated frame machine which only needs deminsions so i should have a straight truck by next weed!
