Bigmike, get some pics of your truck on here! Or are you still pretty busy with school?

I'll take some flex shots in 2 weeks at TDS. But my suspension is still stock, or what ever is on the truck when I got it. Technically I think my MR2 had more flex. I plan on redoing the suspension system after this semester, like early June, but until then I'm not touching my truck at all.. It's just a great very very reliable ride for now for me and I love having a truck :thumbs:

I love My first Gen 1980 truck.  My only complaint is I wish the cab was I little more roomy.  TO bad they didnt come out with the extra cab in those early years

Chris sense you dont have an RTI ramp near you, try doing some urban wheelin. Flex on those huge lamp posts that are in parking lots. Heres a picture of my buddys blazer with an SAS that he dosent have anymore. Start with smaller ones so you dont flop

I accidently did that on a metal/concret pole at school, those 3 ft ones that keep traffic from certain areas.  I was backing up and turning, and I caught it and climbed it with my front tire, bent the pole over :smack:

Lol, maybe I'll try it on an RTI some time, I have no poles to climb and I don't think its legal to drive it down the road.

many people dont know what there talking about......you surely dont want a rig that flexes at every little
obstacle...you have to have flex to keep your tires in contact with the ground...no flex....no traction...
