dude,  you dont have ANY weight back there,  put  a  bed on it, spare tire, jack, toolbox,  then  even some  camping supplies  or  something to equal that weight  then  they will flex

and yes  you need bumpstops

The park looks quite different.....trails that were new when we were there are now worn down some exposing some bad ass rocks....much prettier trails..though everything is green right now (we were there in January) My gf and I rented the cabin for 2 days, went floating one day and wheeling the other. She even drove (a yellow trail at that! AT NIGHT!) It was fun being able to go down trails by myself with out a winch and not having to worry about getting stuck. She and I were the only people in the park (besides the owners) for 2 days. It was real nice. The truck performed flawlessly as far as I am concerned. I said I wouldnt post these pictures out of respect for a fallen wheeler but I changed my mind and decided that people need to see this. Adam Carwile was killed last Saturday morning on this hill. A buggy with 49's kicked a boulder down a steep enbankment. There is loose gravel at the bottom of the hill. Everyone got out of the way except for him. He died on the scene. I was not there at the time of the accident but just wanted people to be aware of the danger involved in this sport. http://www.thesalemnewsonline.com/pages/crime.html
