    Oregon members, I'm looking for referrals or recommendations on someone with frame straightening equipment to pull a ladder frame into alignment on a running / driving vehicle (not a bare frame). I've found a semi-truck repair shop near Eugene but wanted to see what may be available closer to home.

    Most body shops have a frame machine

    Yes I know but I'd prefer to use someone based on a recommendation from personal experience. Best would be an "alignment shop" that has a frame machine. Most body shops are also seriously back-logged right now.

    I'd go talk to Superior Glass Works in Mollala, Oregon. The fiberglass part of the business burned down some years ago, but they still do chassis work. If they can't fix your frame, they'll certainly be able to direct you to someone who can.

    I haven't used them, but people I know say they're a good company.
