Could you have a race where the strength is evenly distributed between upper and lower body?
Sure.
The race is incorporeal, and thus has no strength in any part of its (spiritual) body.

have a slime, where the body of the race is malleable

Sure, they can't be humanoid though, but intelligent fish, tentacle monsters, sapient snakes, amorphous creatures, or even things more like chimpanzees if you want close to humanoid.

Most apes have absurdly strong upper bodies and weak ass legs, mostly so they can climb. With humans it's more or less inverted but we have more fine motor skills

You have to have a reason for their arms to be as necessary for constant use as their legs. Think climbers, swimmers etc, let the arms fdo double cuty as walking implements i you fancy.
Otherwise arms as strong as legs are pointless evolutionarily, as when you carry something in your arms, your legs must carry that + your body.

Gorillas?

robots
They were designed like that.

Why would you want to? Lower body is far more important for anything that walks.

you don't need strength to walk, you need endurance to walk
those things are typically trained separately
