Thank you Greg and Wayne for the excellent reference photos of the truck, I'm sure they'll come in hand when the time comes. I really appreciate your help.

As for the model, I have not had much free time to spend on building but I did manage to tear the frame apart and start over. After looking at the parts, taking a bunch of measurements, checking out diagrams and photos, I realized that the left and right sides should have been laminated to .5 mm card stock. After adding the additional reinforcement, not only is the frame much stronger and rigid but the cross members fit as they should and the width of the frame is correct. Next I will begin working on the front suspension.
