ah also my truck was built 3/89, before the cut off date. so, my springs are 3 inches longer the after 4/89, and the longer the springs the more movement they get therefore more flex

and i know for a fact there longer cuz the company i bought the lift from sold me the shorter springs, and let me tell ya, PITA!!! after the third phone call and visit i finally convinced the idiot that he ordered me the wrong springs...

Those are some BIG tires on that truck.. I'd love to see more pictures of this truck.. I am avoiding a SAS and would love the amount of articulation you've got going on there..
What are those tires BTW? I may have to get me some of them!

That's exactly the type of pic I'm gonna take for my avatar.

Maybe with me leaning out the window to look at the front tire.

What would lead you to believe any suspension would flex in that situation? There's nothing to cause a force to compress it ...

Yeah I know Latrobe. I drive the whole length of it 4 days a week to go to school. I go to folsom lake college. I went to Argonaut high in Jackson so I know martel and Jackson very well. Been here for 15 years. I havn't spent much time goofin around out on latrobe area so I dont recognize where that road is.

ya, we should go wheeling if I ever get my truck fixed lol.

EDIT: Just looked at google maps cuz I didnt think latrobe went to sloughhouse but I see theres another loatrobe rd. that does. I go on the one thats a straight(er) shot from Ione to el dorado.
