Are the rear tub and frame flush?

[GASnBRASS]

Can anyone tell me if the rear of the tub and the rear frame crossmember are supposed to be flush with each other, or does the frame stick out slightly? Putting the tub back on and the rear of the frame sticks out about a quarter inch from the tub.

It sticks out about 1/4 inch or so

Mine is out at least an inch. A bit of the spacer is showing. But as some have said, all these Jeeps are a bit different.

If the body mounts line up just go with it.

If the body mounts line up just go with it.

That's the catch, I replaced the torque boxes and the rear tub crossmember (8 of 10 tub body mounts), so I wasn't sure if the tub and frame were supposed to be flush, or if something was royally screwed up. Pushing the tub back trying to line up the tub flush with the rear frame some of the body mounts are maxed out in adjustment. But if others are saying there is a bit of offset between the two then it must be normal. I tried looking through old build photos but nothing gives me a good angle to verify how it was before.

Just checked mine and it sticks out a little over half an inch. Both sides are the same and it's never been wrecked or had anything bent that might effect it.

Thanks guys, when the rear of the tub and frame were not flush with each other I thought maybe I seriously messed up my torque box installs but couldn't see how. Good to know this is normal.
