82 with a bent frame

I have an 82 short box with a bent frame. I found an 85 frame. Will they fit together?

What do you mean together? If you are asking if the box and cab will fit onto the 85 frame, then yes, you can make it fit, is a direct bolt on, no it is not.

A skilled fabricator can make anything fit together

Am I wrong? A 4x4 frame is different from a 2WD, or maybe the parts can be transfered.
How much are they asking for the frame, just like to know how much to offer if i find one. I need to find one for my '82 4x4 LB. Theres just not much in the city.
Any one know the approx weight of a frame? Good Luck.
