i am still drooling over your rear bumper... may have to get a new computer shortly haha.

it is all based off the shocks you use. Shocks are always what limit flex.

I am one of the few out to prove short arms are just as capable.

once the rear shocks are the correct size i should have about 4" more droop in the rear too

Hahaha I haven't ordered it yet. Ima wait till Monday to order it. Yeah short arms aren't so bad its just most ride quality you mostly benefit out of. But then again I've seen some long arm setups that droop all the way down to hell that a short arm setup wont ever come close to

My 88 had some sliders, definitely fun/good to have. I haven't hit my rockers yet on my 98 but in AZ they saved my 88's rockers big time. That and a gas tank skid where fun to have on my 88.
