Start taking diagonal measurements from common points and compare. Passernger side fire wall to driverside frame horn. Then driverside firewall to passenger side frame horn.

Diagonals from front suspension pickup points to somwhere out back maybe rear LCA on chassis? If something is really tweaked you be able to see it.

The diagonals should be very close.
