It will depend on how the body is mounted / bolted to the frame. Typically
a body sits on rubber circular pads that in turn sit on the frame. There
is movement on the rubber pads and if the body is not rigid enough ( how
much is enough?) then the movement will cause doors to jam and paint to
crack. The door gaps will shift and not be parallel.
