    Thats a good start, but the key to being a Mall crawler, is getting the pic taken at the mall. Driveways are a nice "testing" ground, but the results arent accurate.

    A lot of people seem to be confusing being a "bro" and mall crawling

    While many bros mall crawl on the regular, not all mall crawlers are bro and vice versa

    Mod list... Well, my paint is factory.
    I have a 3in OME lift with Add-a-leafs, will I be safe with a 6"-8" curb flex? I've read that it'll be fine but I've been told by various Bro's that I'll need to step up to a Fabtech 6" with 35's on 18" chromes at a bare minimum.
    Please help before I ruin my truck!

    PS. I've been trying to put together a Bro survival kit. I've got wife beaters, extra flat bill and Coors light but I'm not sure if I should go with Monster or Rockstar.

    I'm pretty sure you are a bit mistaken. I believe it's:
    Not all mall crawlers are Bro's but all Bros's mall crawl.

    HELP! I MAY HAVE RUINED MY TRUCK!!!

    Ok, well nobody answered me about curb flex with my OME lift so I went to breakfast. After eating I realized that I was smack dab in the middle of a strip mall. Now since this wasn't a large indoor mall, I figured that maybe it would be safe to try to get a bit of curb so I went for it. I was able to get up on the curb with one tire for maximum flex. At this point I was regretting my decision because I knew the trip back down would be treacherous. Luckily I was able to descend the curb face slowly and carefully and safely reach the bottom.
    Now that I'm at home, I can't help but think that I may have caused serious damage. I know I broke a few rules of Mall crawling. You see my truck is dirty and I don't have chrome rims or any moto/energy drink stickers. Before you guys flame me I know what I did was stupid and I don't need anyone talking smack to me about it. The fear that I may have done some sort of permanent damage is punishment enough. On the drive home the truck seemed ok. No abnormal pulling, shuddering or noises but I can't help but think there may be something wrong. Please put my fears at ease...

    Have you checked for shocks for any leaking or breakage? You may also need to take it to a shop to check for possible frame bends, it seems that the ride down the curb could have seriously damaged your frame. It might be totaled. Sorry to hear. :pout:
