I have been getting this frame ready for new V8 mounts, sandblasting and powder coating. All the old mounts have been removed and I was just getting ready to grind smooth all the leftover welds where the old junk mounts were when I noticed this may be bent. I made sure all the jacks are in the same notch (same height) and without touching the frame it sits on 3 points (2 in the back and passenger side front). Driver side front is raised in the air about an inch. The jack are all the same model numbers and this is all new concrete although the jacks are on 2 different pads. Notice the bubble as well.
Here is the backside without touching the frame, again 3 points touching (2 in the back and passenger side front). Bubble is perfect
When I push down on the front, the bubble moves to perfect but the passenger rear is now lifted off.
This will be a daily driver so making sure this is ok one way or the other is critical. I'm sure there is some amount of twist that would be ok but I'm pretty sure this is not good enough to continue without fixing. I will call a frame shop tomorrow to see what they charge to check it out and adjust, if necessary. It is important to continue using this frame as it matches the title. Please chime in with your thoughts, recommendations, etc.
Thanks!
