Lets see some more trucks twisted to there max, this is with only 2 tirs on the ground, I would have gone further, but I still anted to take some pics....

Destructo · 04-24-2004, 11:50 PM

Here ya go, I still have all four on the ground in this pic and could have gone further if my ghetto ramp was any longer.

Destructo · 04-24-2004, 11:51 PM

here from the other side. And in case your wondering how the front flexes so good with rough country springs its because of no swaybar, the front springs are fully flexed out, any further and I would worry about damage.

Prerunner1982 · 04-25-2004, 01:13 AM

ok, so its not that big,... its not even maxed, ramp wasnt long enough.

looks like 1980chevy4x4 was just setting up to change his oil!

1980chevy4x4 · 04-25-2004, 06:34 PM

HAHAH if i had a better ramp....it would do alot better...

Joey-D · 04-25-2004, 08:15 PM

I figured out today while under my truck that the shocks are for the wrong size lift and maxed out. I could have gone further, but with no e-brake, I had to find a good spot to stop.

Destructo · 04-25-2004, 10:38 PM

Gotta love those ghetto RTI ramps. My truck fell off of mine one time, rear left tire was a couple feet in the air and just dropped straight off when my log fell over. It was actually kinda cool lol, lucky for me though I didn't tear up some sheetmetal in the back.

1980chevy4x4 · 04-25-2004, 11:09 PM

Yea i know myne was very gehto and i was afriad to go any further... I have plans for a good one. Are those tires exspenive? How are they in the mud? Street?

Devil'S Ride · 04-26-2004, 11:13 AM

Think I have posted these here somewhere...but I'll put em up again....

Front flex....with sway bar.

Rear flex.

'Nother rear shot.

Thats it fer now....I just got bored while wheelin, an decided to see how far up the wall I could drive....Where these pics are taken, I had backed down about 3". While attempting to drive up the first time, I got up on three wheels, but my brake wouldnt hold the truck, so I rolled back to where it is now. Enjoy!
