Most of my loads are over 35k. I haul reefer freight. I have heard about twisted frames before. I will check to see if my frame is twisted and also the height of each side of the frame.

That's very true what @AModelCat is saying. It's normal for the frames to have Flex, it's part of how they are designed.
However, it does happen sometimes that the frame gets twisted. If it is a new to you truck then that's always a possibility. You don't know what happened with the previous owners . There was a post on here a while back that a person had a brand new truck and their frame was out of whack.
If it is Twisted there are big truck collision shops that have frame machines that they can straighten them out.
I couldn't tell you if it is or not but just something else to take a look at. And also check that your front axle isn't bent.PE_T Thanks this.
