All frames allow for some flex same with unibodies. However on my dads farmall tractor the transmission and axle housings are the frame. Dont see how they can flex.
Yes, but you are over simplifying the forces that are applied to the frame when these guys are using it.take 2 pieces of metal.
put a pencil between them to act as crossmember.
lift one side watch pencil snap.
use thicker metal on the sides (quadruple, whatever. it don;t matter) use that same pencil as crossmember.
pencil will still snap.
think about it.
I'm out.
