Measure diagonally both ways -actually an X, but they call it a diamond- from any supposedly sysmetrical parts, rivets, shock mounts, spring hangers.anyhow, you can use a plumb bob or level to make marks on the driveway, then measure between the marks. If things are straight, both of the diagonal measurements will be the same. If the frame is crooked you will dog-track down the road, bad for tires and gas mileage
