I was only able to get the normal 686 for 3" 'cuz my shocks greatly limit my flex right now. They're still the ones that came with Rusty's 3" kit so they get maxed out before everything else. But, I don't have the money for new and longer ones, so a higher score will have to wait.

people who have good scores do lol.

most people who go for lots of flex do it for the "cool factor" and don't care so much about offroad ability.

true. my friends TJ was literally a ramp champ and i could walk all over him in most situations. although long wheelbase helps around here.

I can do in the 800's on a 20 degree ramp. If I wold have got longer shocks, it'd obviously be more.

My XJ currently ramps an 1100 froward and 1260 in reverse. My rear shocks are too long, not creating enough uptravel, so it will be a bigger score soon.

I care about ramp scores because it helps me to determine shock length, limit strap length, where to trim for big tires, where to bump stop, ect......not the actual score, but the ramp does. My ''poser shots'' are usually done to determine these things.
