How much lift you running? I tried to stretch my stock lines today and couldn't anywhere near enough droop to do it. Even had a 3.5" lift spring falling out.

PO said 4", but looks like pro comp 3" parts. I measured from hub to fenders before cutting and hot 21" so I think it has 4" springs. but I don't have away bar and playing in this ditch just to measure bump stops etc I noticed they were tight! we're you just dropping one side? or jacking it up? I had fixed lowers and stock uppers. just installed some superflex arms so can't wait to see how much better is does, even though it fleeced pretty good before.

Super flex? Never heard of them.

I put it through its paces on everything yesterday. Parked on a stump for one side only and put it in a ditch for a teetering effect. Never came near a bump stop or the bottom of a brake line. Maby next trip i should try with no shocks and see what i can get that way

Saw some ice on Sunday by a target... Couldn't resist, found out that one of the 5 previous owners removed the rear swaybar
