WARNING, GARAGE POSSER FLEX SHOTS
I decided to flex the POS up with the highlift to get an idea about usinging limiting straps and the balance between the front and rearends.
From the pictures you can see the frontend has good flex, and the rear is pretty sad. The rear leafs are new, stiff, and the shackle is still leaned forward (even on the "stuffed" side), so there is hope that they will breakin and loosen up some (fingers crossed).
Back to the frontend, you can see the front coil is unseated, this comes just a few inches before the shocks are maxed out (shocks are 1" away from being maxed). I really dont think the frontends provides any traction once that coil is unseated, providing no down force on the tire. So, I figure the limiting strap should be just long enough to let it drop to the point at which the coil becomes unseated. Any input about this is appreciated.
Overall I'm happy with how the suspension is working out so far, still gotta get it on a trail and see how it does.
