Welcome to the forum! The vin frame stamp is typically found (on US built trucks) on the top of the right side frame rail (passenger side) under the hood between the firewall and radiator. You'll probably have to scrape off a bunch of grease and dirt to find it, and you'll probably need to look closely because sometimes they're not stamped very heavily. Take a look and let us know what you find. Let's hope it matches the number found on your title paperwork.
