Or are you recommending heating and then somehow using pump to straighten? Sorry for the newbie questions.
You would have to be creative, build a immovable wall, the bottom of the frame would be easy, since you could use the floor to push up on. But as Turp says ( he's the pro) use a torch first and see what results you get. Last resort, buy a frame section, and have that welded on. There s one for sale, on the parts board. Keep us posted on your progress
