    I've tried neutral also...I don't think that's it. To me, it's acting like a wet/dirty solenoid. It's either sticky and not making good contact, or it's wet and some of the current is shunting to the housing.

    No it doesn’t lol if that was true, IFS would be just as good in the rocks as solid axle. But it’s not. Each side is loaded independently, there is nothing linking them. You can get more travel buy forcing more weight into the front.

    I think you are getting confused with total travel (front and rear combined) vs individual wheel travel.

    Pat, meet Doug…Doug, this is Pat. @pearing

    edit to add: I’ve yet to regret any bad ideas resulting from Pat’s influence. Just because I’ve cried on the inside after looking at my paint doesn’t mean it was a bad idea.

    I seek clarification good sir! Old Fashioned are rarely a bad idea, and never ever ever a bad idea when made by the capable hands of @Thatbassguy . Never!
