While prepping to install torque box reinforcements, I noticed that there is a slight gap between the (red circled) metal and the body. Seems weird that this tab would not be welded to the body.
At first, I thought it must be damage/it pulled away from the body. But it doesn't appear to have the telltale uneven ripping that usually see when a frame part seems to have ripped away. It has a uniform 1/8" or so gap the length of that tab. Also, I don't see any weld marks and both driver and passenger seem to have the same exact gap in the same places.
I'm really hoping someone can tell me this is just normal since all suspension components, wheels, etc are off and I doubt I could get an experienced frame guy to come to my house.
