My truck flexes about 55cm with the bar on, and without it I can get about 2-3" more flex, so do you think my trucks offroad performance is dramatically affected by the fact that the bar is still fitted?
But of course I'm gonna remove it someday. It's still fitted just because I've been to lazy to modify the bump stops. My goal is 90cm of flex with 33-35" tires...

How much you think you get more offroad performance by removing the ar-bar?MysticRich wrote: Yes but have you both removed your anti roll bar ????

And this is when the lift kit was just installed, so it might have softened up a bit after that. Maybe I should do another test when the snow melts...

EDIT: And this is with the 10" wheels, so with the 8" ones there's more clearance than that.

Here you go. This isn't full lock, because there's more room on full lock than that, so this is where the tire is closest to the inner arch. And this is on full articulation. But with more aggressive tires it's time for some more sheet metal work as you can see, but with the Kumhos there's about 10mm of clearance.reaper wrote: How about a pic of the front on full lock and full articulation that will show us much more
