    This is the build I referred to earlier. It just went DMZ SUA with ADS triples last week. When it comes to flexing and keeping the tires on the ground, SUA is really good at it.

    I've heard both ends of the argument. If youre navigating a boulder bed I know you could drag one. So it comes down to how hard you go in the rocks or where you intend to go.

    I know exactly where that spot is. Six or seven years ago I led a TW run of like 20 trucks down that trail. I miss Gorman.

    I haven't had any issues, I've done more tight/technical/rock in the last couple of years that I've been SUA than I have high speed stuff.

    They drag, but it's rare. I used to think they would do it all the time, but they don't. They lift up as the tires climbs the obstacle as well.

    And once I got the two extra leafs stuffed into the defined leaf pack, it handles weight great while still handling and flexing well. I couldn't be happier with the rear end.
