Default RE: Is the subframe bent???....

When I removed the subframe, I flipped it and layed it on the garage floor in the exact mounting position but inverted. As it lays on the floor, I see that one of the four mount points does not lay flush with the floor, it's elevated about 1".

Question, is the subframe geometry made with a slight bend?

Ah, either way, I'd be OK with making a sandwich on that subframe, and then eating it.
