Does my frame look bent/cracked?

Hello, I was wondering if this looks normal to anyone towing with a Ram 1500. Trailer is about 4600lbs full loaded and distributed the weight as best as I could. What should I look for and how to find potential cracks? 20240614_103840.jpg 20240614_103828.jpg 20240613_195752.jpg

I think it looks fine. Your cab line to the truck body line is straight and it looks parallel. I think if you had a bent frame you would notice it when driving. Maybe your steering wheel would be off. The body seems slightly lower than the cab, but that could be with the mounts. Maybe it looks the same unloaded?

Mine looks like that when she's loaded up, though my trailer is almost twice that weight.
It is concerning agreed, but so far it seems to be holding up.
Must be a flexy frame.
