Post Your Flex Pics

Post by Goatse.AJ »

Just thought I'd post up a few of my flex pics, show us what you've got.

My suspension:

Front: Stock shockies, wound up torsion bars, removed sway bar, shaved bumpstops. COST = $0.00

Rear: Extended Shackles, extra leaf from Holden HZ ute, shocks from Ford Falcon (need looonger shocks, but I snapped one of my old ones). COST = Shackles: A case of beer
Extra leaf: $26.00 from wrecker
Shocks: $16.00 from wrecker

Shocks I'm running at the moment are severely limiting droop, so will be chasing Ranchos or similar after all the holiday period settles down.

Couple more...

Shot from the rear is just to show what sort of articulation I'm currently getting.

HotFourOk: Not necessarily awesome but fairly well built. I need to do some more work on it but it gets down to -20* F this time of year. I really need to wheel it and get something besides ramp pics. I don't have a garage and it's cold. Waaa I know I'm a wuss.

BundyRumandCoke: Not bad at all :onfire: That has to be the coolest avatar I've ever seen!

Was shocked when I saw how much my Rocky actually flex's!! :shock:

Standard everything on this one. This shot was at maximum flex, as we could just kinda lift the back drivers side wheel off the ground.

Urm are u sure? I'm not on car domain and my car is not a submarine with a periscope and a diesel engine. I think this might be the car u're reffering to. I think that car is quite a monster as it runs LC axles, airlockers and M8274 warn winch. I'm from Malaysia. That is an Indonesian car.
My car is stockish as yours. Only modded with dents.
Just runs a crappy 4Y, and hardly any lift suspension, and a slow mount M8000 which is a good 20 years old.
