So how much can you flex?

Muddy Beast · Sep 5, 2008

I'm curious what fellow NW guys get as flex. Since our trails are so tight it seems you wouldnt want to go too big, but you also want good flex. So what does everyone settle at?

I just went to 4wheel parts so I could flex out and put hocky pucks in as bumpstops, and since I just trimmed I encountered a nice surprize. I can now get to #7 on the flex ramp at the 4wheelparts in Lynnwood.

This is with 3" springs (leaf and coils) and 1.25" lift shackles in the rear.

EDIT: Oh, and I'm not rubbing anywhere at full tuck.

Cool. Im at a little over 4" with 34's. I talked to one of the guys who works at All-Pro Offroad (They make stuff for Toyota's). Their shop is a few streets from my house, He told me I could go and try out on their ramp anytime.

Ya usually if the ramps there, it's free game. After all it attracts business. Go flex, see where you go, take a picture, and post!

Our 2007 Scratch 'n Dent BBQ up in Issaquah featured a flex contest of sorts. Results: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=925667&highlight=scratch+dent+bbq

anyone in the Vancouver area can stop in at the 4x4 cruise to find out their flexyness on the RTI ramp

IMO, no lack of flex there. Btw, the two tone paint job came out pretty sick. Looks good :thumbup:
