Bumper moves?

[jo89k5]

Ok, so my front bumper is being a little strange today, I jacked up the front drivers side to pull the tire off today and when I lowered the axle a little to rest on the jack stand I noticed that the drivers side of the front bumper moved! I thought that was really strange and jacked it back up a bit, put the tire back on removed the jack stand and let her down and sure as s***t the bumper returned to it's normal spot.

Also, I was wheeling a little the other day and got stuck, my buddy hooked his winch up to my front passenger side tow hook, I noticed when he started pulling that the passenger side of the bumper moved out, and the drivers side moved in, to the point where it scraped the paint and cracked the lens on the side marker.. Had him attach the winch to the drivers side tow hook and it straightened itself out...


Any idea of what's going on here? Just as I seem to finish up with one part of the truck another 5 problems manage to pop up

Thanks in advance

Your radiator support bushings are shot, maybe your body bushings too. Also check your engine crossmember/frame area for loose or broken frame rivets.

It should be noted, some amount of frame flex is normal. That's just how these trucks were designed.
