Not much, but I am happy.....that cursed IFS is so stiff. No rubbing at least.

qoute from cartman---"SWEET!"

i like it. what size is that sticker on the back in between the hinges? i need to order me one
 












matt matt matt matt matt!1! hella cool!!!!! The "push bar" looks a lot better where it is now! im likin it a lot!!!

oh yeah....when are you doing your solid axle swap? Dead Link Removed
 






And all you've done is the torsion twist and warrior shackles? That's all I thought I read in the registry anyways...
 






negative.....he has a 3" body lift also......

and is it just me, or are you refering to yourself as a boy monkey?
 






Actually I was just referring to suspension mods, considering that the thread is about flex.

I'm referring to myself as Monkey Boy. It's a nickname that I've had for a LONG time. One of my best friends called me that one day and it kind of stuck. Where I went to school more people knew me as Monkey or Monkey Boy than my real name. I don't really know why I choose to spell it backwards on so many things. Habit I guess.

BTW, chicks dig the name Monkey... ;)
 






oh Matt, can't keep your truck clean for a minute,,,, always playing in the mud....... mom won't like it you know!

:)
 






Imagine how much better it would be if the front end actually flexxed... The front suspension must be made by Chevy, like a rock... Does the front actually move if you take off the sway bars? Thats the only thing I don't like about the new (95+) front end, it doesn't flex near as well as the old TTB did.

BTW - Looks great and its still a Ford so that cancels out any bad things about it... :)
 






Ya, well, the front sway bar was on it when these pics were taken. When it's off it does get more flexible. The front sway bar is 1.5" thick. I swear it belongs on the F450HD.

Thanks guys
 






1.5" thick???? mine was like 3/4" to an inch, lol....... I think..

Mine is off though and I have noticed more flex but it really sucks on the highway..... I'm putting steering stabilizer on this week.

Later,
 












you could probably get more money for it from recycler then on eBay!!!!!

lol
 












hey, matt...now you need to change your plate to read

MR FLX T 1 hehehe!

Hehe...ya... I am thinking of a new license plate.

Something to do with off roading.....

Nice pics, I didn't think X's could be so flexy, I love your prerunner style front bumper where can I get one?
 






That one is custom...sort of. It is a Westin Safari bar.
