Very cool. I wonder how much better it would do with the sway bars disconnected.

It would do a whole heck of a lot better. Notice how he was only getting about 2" of wheel travel up front due to the monstrous front sway bar.
 






How did you compute your scores?

The Back Explorer

As for calculating the RTI Score I found out that we had a guess of the score. I drive the black XLT "92 I am planning on building a 20degree ramp just to check the actual articulation, the place we went to had a drawback, they said when you started kicking rock on a gravel rock drive you stopped to check score, I am going to build one for me on a paved driveway.

Depending on your diff, you should still be able to go higher when they told you to stop. Your wheel spins because there is no wheight on it. But in 4wd you should be able to go a lot higher. What was your score?
 






exactly whwat CHSPYDER said. They didn't want to tear up their driveway. we were in 4lo going up and we both have a LS rear end so we couldn've went alot higher than in the pics, also i have a 5spd tranny and the E-brake doesn't catch allt he way, so the truck still rolled down a 'bit b4 it caught, oh well, I'm Out...
 






I was wondering what CHSPYDER scored. Just since he has the 5.5".
