Did some frame flex testing yesterday to get started on the subframe design.
It was VERY surprising to see such a giant beefy frame flex so much. I know C channel cab and chassis had more flex that boxed frames, but i didnt expect THIS much.
Note: The springs barely moved at all here, this is ALL frame:
