On another note..flex doesnt mean really **** unless your on an RTI ramp.
or a fork lift

I'll bet this xj 3" on 35's flexes better than that black one

I think your jeep looks cool. I would just rather have done 4.5 with the 35's but it's your rig. You do with it what makes you happy. I would just be scared I was going to take a tumble. Lol

I'm at about 6" or so with 38s. It's a bit tall but works for me and I am in TN and have been riding rocks for a long time.

Huh?
When you wheel on rocks, flex is mandatory.

Ok the first 2 are rather stupid. Whats going on with the second one? That huge curved frame looking part? The last one, that thing is pretty badass in my opinion.
