since you said the vin checks out as a 3/4 ton, and the frame is obviously a 1/2 I would check out all the body mounts/braces , likr revoh said the left and right wheels are definatly in different spots.
Is that crack by the back window bondo that is cracked? or is it metal that is cracked all the way through?
Any of that bondo/paint that is bubbled through with rust , you need to sand off, down to shiny bare metal, even if you don't fix the problems right away get them down to what metal is left , and protect that with paint, until you can get to it.
