Flex shots

OK, the stuck thread is pretty cool. How bout articulation or flex shots? We can do flex or lack of flex shots... I'm looking for tires up in the air, or how far can you flex keeping the tires on the ground. Ramp shots are OK, but action shots are better.

Here's one to start it off.

This was up at Evan's Creek, at the very top of 311.

That's why I finally changed to Sony Imagestation, they let you link right to the photo and it will show up in your posting. You can also upload alot of photos at once, I'm not sure what the max is, more than 15 though.
Oh yeah here's my best pose-
rear view-
That's before I got my disconnects, I should try again without the swaybar connected.

This summer i plan to get longer shockers and mount them higher, that is what is stopping me right now.

EDIT: you will notice my rear shackles arn't even fully extended...i got some flex left in me still. one day i need to do that and disconnect my shocks.

Need articulation on the sand dunes? Who'd a thunk it?


This is at hollister for our club's newbie run. The 4runner in the background is Roger Brown and the jeep is newbie.

I don't think it was quite fully flexed in the first two pics, but they are my best shots. I had a little bit to go to have been touching the bumpstops.

These were taken on 2-7. This was my first four wheeling trip, and I don't believe this is full flex. I think I have a few more inches left, but I didn't want to drive over the rock. Not bad for stock suspension (except the ranchos).

Not quite as good as yours Steve.
