I've had mine offroad quite a bit since i put on the lift and it seems very flexy. dont have any pics right now though. i will try to take some maybe this weekend and post them up. i really like the RC lift and havent had any trouble with it.

did the new tre's and ball joints fix any DW issues? I have a pretty bad DW and thats the only thing i can think of that i have not changed yet to fix the problem. did you go with oem stuff or upgrade?
