Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default RK 2.5 max flex

Plenty of flex with this kit. Disconnecting the swaybar links is must.

Ouch! Man that is a lot of flex, I'm looking at the rk 2.5 flex. How long are your shocks? Did you have any bump stops?

The shocks are 27.5 fully extended. I will get bump stops when I get bigger tires no need for them yet. The ride is great and the quality of the parts are top notch.

Nothing yet, just going to fully disconnect for now. I was considering limiting straps.

(btw, fully disconnected the front passenger spring came out while flexed but I think it had to do with the coil hitting the upper bump stop because the axle wasn't centered enough)
