Bumper moved when jacking up truck.
I put a jack under the lower control arm to work on brakes and the bumper moved. Is this normal?

Yes. It should go "up".

Re: Bumper moved when jacking up truck.
Well know Keith has me wondering exactly what you meant when you said it moved...
In relationship to the ground...or did it move on the truck itself?

Re: Bumper moved when jacking up truck.
It moved up in relation to the grill. I’ll get pic in a few days. I’m working on another car and forget to jack it this one up again.

Re: Bumper moved when jacking up truck.
The truck has a 5.3 and 4L60e. Just finished the swap about 3 weeks ago. Works great but working out details.
