Re: 1978 chevy bent frame NEED HELP.

I agree with Monroe, it does not sound like the "bent frame" is the problem.

Assuming this is RWD, you have a steering "knuckle" on either side, these are connected to the steering box by a center link, and some tie rods, etc:

My bet is that one or so of your steering parts is bent.

Center your steering wheel, how many turns right will it go?
Crawl in the front and take some pics of your steering components.

Now center it again and turn full left. How many turns was that?
Crawl under and take more photos.

It's hard to beat the scientific method.
