I'm looking for a few pics showing lots of flex using all factory springs... 52's, 56's, 63's... don't matter. Maybe pics with something like a 4" spring would work too.

The reason is I need a few pics is to show someone that a Chevy can easily outflex a Ford using stock parts, or close to stock.

Years ago there were some cool pics floating around here (I think Micah was his name?) where him and his buddy has some stuff twisted up in a deep ditch, anyone know what I'm talkin about?

Hi Can Can, how ya been?

14" & 16" travel shocks

56"s front & rear. 15" travel shocks. It will completely stroke the shocks. I know the pic of micah you speak of, I will look for it. That was one of the first 52" spring swaps I saw.

I found one of the pics I think you were speaking of, I had it saved on my hard drive. At the time this was the most amazing flex I had seen from the front of a leaf sprung Chevy. He does have quite a bit of frame flex too though. If I remember right He rode with the guy that had the orange blazer with a white cage, that was in the Top Truck Challenge several years ago. I could be wrong on that one though. There were other pictures of the orange blazer with rockwells in this pic, but I didn't save them.

I have no idea if this is an official "flex" pic or not, but its all ive got. This is with 2" Rough Country springs and reg. shocks. no other mods to suspension at that time and 33" tires

Thanks to everyone who posted some pics, they all look great and make me really miss my old K20!


boz42, you are awesome! That's one of the pics I remember, thank you!

There was a "flex thread" on a small forum I'm on that is for Ford trucks... but the Fords can't flex for anything! I posted a couple pics of my old K20 on there and told em old Chevys using stock springs can outflex old Fords easily.

Anyway, I'd like to save some pics from this thread and host on my photobucket account to post on the Ford forum... so I'm asking permission from the following people to use your pics, just let me know if you don't mind...
