frame twist.

[s2pidyeah]

is it just me or all rangers do it. like wen i'm flexing to top corner of my bed would go up about 1/8" from my rear glass and the other side drops.
normal for dat much frame twist?

its not just rangers. all full frame vehicles twist. even unibody cars have a certain amount of body flex. your not driving one solid object...theres bound to be a little relitive motion here and there.

I have less frame flex with no swaybars, before the bed would hit the cab.

It's probably not this bad though.....

I had a broken bed mount, lol.

Damn, I have almost NO frame flex...

The gap was already somewhat large. The otherside shows only slightly more frame flex than this side (no picture of the other side). That rear wheel is off the ground too, so that is basicly full flex with no sway bars. That may be part of the lack of frame twist though.

EDIT: Oh, and that is with a 3" body lift too.

But I have to agree, everything, no matter what it is has some amount of frame flex.

the frame rail on that side is bent up in the middle.it flexes better this way than the other side lol

I know 2st/2nd Gen rigs have more frame flex than newer ones, but I'd say that is on the verge of something being wrong.
