This is a stock OME 2" lift kit with a 1" body lift and rear stabilizer disconnected..
It had a good inch left in the rear tube and wasn't on the bump stop yet..

It doesnt matter where you are or what you are doing theres always time for a flex shot :)
Looks good mate, they 31's? And I totally agree with matt on that
Yea they are 31's. Got about 20% tread left so a set of 33's will be there soon
Also that's the factory disconnect. Not unbolted.

Nice flex mate! Think I'm going make some disconnect sway bar links for my troll. Just gotta work out what length rods I need for a 2inch lift first...
nice bit of flex there pal!
Stock lengths mudski is fine. The bar has plenty of room to move still.

After fitting my 2"I went to arb and bought some sway bar mount extensions from memory they were 15$ for the pair for the per end (front/back) so it puts your sway bar back to standard position. But if you want disconnects just get one for your lift I'm sure where you go can tell you what you needQuote:

Looks like some spacers are in order too.Quote:

Not one butt clench anywhere...... This will change with 33"s
After a good flex when exiting the 4x4 your seat covers should follow you. now thats flexing
followed by uncontrollable shaking
totaly agree 200 is to steep for what they are,
big gq how much do the factory disconects let go compared to unbolting it ?
There's no factory disconnects for the GU isn't there?...
if there are i got ripped off but i dont think so.. well not that ive ever seen
Yet another great idea by Ni$$an and then they get rid of it.
I'm not sure mega. I know the disconnect gets you about 40% more travel compared to connected.Quote:

The front has more in it, i just ran out of flat stuff before the slope....
Looks like its got a little more in it mate or is it maxed?
Was at superior engineering this week and asked about there super flex arms the fella said you will get around 3inch extra flex on top of what you have whether it be stock or 6 inch .. Any one actually measured the improvement and if so what shocks you running. if hes not full of it ill be seriously considering them
Well that's a hell of a call.. 3" extra..
But the rear I think is maxed, but the front has more in it..
I do need to get a fork lift to see if the shocks are bottoming out because it was all off the bump stops..
