Wanted to see some pics of the flex I can expect to get when I throw in some CADs with my adj upper and lower arms on a 6" lift. Anything would be nice! Thanks!

Well yes of course. I was just asking to see some pictures of other jeepers that are running control arm drop brackets (often referred to as CADs on here) and see what kind of flex they are getting out of them on there own specific set up.

You'll never get the articulation of a long arm but mine ain't too bad.

awesome man thanks for the picture! and it looks like to me that that rig is sitting at around 5.5-6" like mine is also. and most of it looks like the same parts on the front. i would be happy with that kind of travel for sure. looks like you could use some bump stops tho huh?
