Default need frame help!!!!!!

I really need help. I bought a wrecked 2007 dakota and turns out what was a easy fix is not so easy. The frame was bent to the right about 2 inches at the front and i have a frame machine and was able to pull in back to the left about a inch and a half but i cant get in to pull anymore. I know it is still a half inch out because the right tire sticks out past the fender about a inch. I know someone that is really good with pulling frames but he needs a scematic on the frame measurements. Does ANYONE know where I can get one?

The service manual has frame dimensions starting at page 13-10. I'm reading them now. Check it out if it's still available for download.

i think snipingdude was referring to a Haynes manual, but I'm not sure one exists for the Dakota yet.
