I have my frame so tight that I can jack up the front d/s or p/s and lift the same tire on the rear. same time/same height. pros/cons?

How does that happening translate to tight? I have a 1986 Camaro that does the same thing? Its just heavy in the front, and when I jack up the car right behind the front wheel, the rear wheel will lift equally..

Shazaam has in the past stated that he wished he'd never boxed his frame, due to the advantages of frame flex.....(At least that's what I interpreted)?

FWIW


A..............

what are the advantages of frame flex - i cant think of any? But I am always looking for new ideas

I put the jack under the front axle. as I lift the front axle the rear axle will raise at the same rate. Only a frame with motor, tranny and SCS case installed.

I think it's pretty common, when the truck is setting in the shop there is hardly any weight on the rear end compared to the front. Not to mention if you have bump stops, assuming the stops are touching, the rear had better lift or your frame is really flexible.
