    Lol:rofl:

    I’ve yet to see the 63s out perform my set up to point where I’d justify the amount of work it takes to do the swap. On paper they’re better but out on the trails I just don’t see the superiority that’s being claimed.
    Up in URE I pretty much kept up with frank and Wes. I was still on stock shackle hangers and I’m open open, they’ve got lockers.

    As for the rtt ramp, there’s petty of rigs that out flex others on the ramp but on the trails don’t out perform.

    You were out there with us at Red Rock that one time weren't you? I know it's kind of comparing apples to oranges, but in the pic of the OGT going down that one sketchy hill, my passenger rear tire was almost 1' off the ground. When Frank went down it, his passenger rear came of the ground less than an inch...and I think that was before he was running 14" shocks. I know Frank has a longer wheelbase and a wider track (by 5") than I do, so that might have made some difference, but if you keep the tires on the ground, you'll get more traction even if it's only slightly more and that could make the difference between making it over the obstacle and being denied. It seems to me that you'd also get more stability with more tires on the ground as well.

    What we do normally here in FL, it probably won't make a huge difference since we have to work hard to find a line that will pull a tire off the ground, but in serious rock crawling places, the extra down travel, IMHO, would make a significant difference.

    I just need some 14s and I’ll be pretty much equal with a whole lot less cutting and welding to achieve it.

    Alright, since my @Timbo89 already whored it out,here’s another one. I still think @Trident904 doesn’t flex as well because his leafs are clamped too tight.
    Edit: @FlyinRyan893 i have some flex gopro footage from following you at citrus, i just need to step up my video editing skillz
