    Not a whole lot of flex but that's jut a little gravel pile I found to take pics on. Looking for trails and people that want to go out and check out the places in Va and NC and WV.

    Yes sorry from Lynchburg and I've been looking for meets and other things like that around the area. Id like to meet new and more toyota owners around here and maybe organize a new group for trail rides and what not. Let me know if you all want to do anything.

    you'll only see more travel from shackles if your leafs have more movement than the stock shackles allow

    Longer shackles allow for the axle to droop more regardless of the leaf movement. Look at the shackle angle in the bottom pic.. a longer shackle will most definitely increase droop by the amount that the new shackle is longer than stock.

    Chevy 63's ;) I will have to redo my lower shock mounts if I want to see anymore droop though..

    doesnt necessarily mean more travel, just means it's higher to begin with

    Correct but it will still compress to the same point as it did without the shackles. Thus, more travel.
