Forklift at work needs a new flywheel, so wasn't able to use it to test the flex, but hit the trail instead

Mostly it is lower CG I am after, I am about to do long arms up front rubicon express and their belly transmission crossmember/brace and bigger bump stops in the rear with longer travel shocks I have 3 in longer travel shocks up front already, but I am not going to lift it any if I can get away with it... The long arms are to help with flex and ride quality
Got it. Another stupid question, or two, if you don't mind. With the added weight of the new tires plus the additional bracing you are going to run, I'm guessing the ratio of weight distribution has already shifted in favor of the lower section. Wouldn't a small (3"?) lift still be beneficial for articulation, clearance, and comfort? Or do you not mind riding the bumpstops frequently?
