what i did was flip the leaf springs around to gain about 5 inches. I was also going to have the axle out so i shaved off some of it.

now here it is flexing its got more flex then befor but it still scores the same on the ramp because of the longer wheel base. You should also know that this is a 30 degree ramp!

what the suspention looks like under flex. The leafs act alot better now that the clamp is in the back. there is less axle wrap and they dont bend all up like the did befor but we will see how long that last.
