Flex what you got

Post by Green&Loud »

So here's one for the offroaders:
how much flex can you get out of your FSJ? Im mainly interested in j trucks but it would be fun to see some Cherokees and waggys too. Pictures are a must ;)

Haha, trust me, if my truck would move I would! Its hard to find a good place to flex it when its not running and sitting on flat tires :( I do plan on starting a build thread for my truck once I make notable progress on it. However, i didnt figure anybody would be interested in the current stage where I clean out rat turds and replace rotted fuel lines though

Yea, I feel kinda bad cause I love looking at all the pictures but haven't contributed myself. I have TONS of pictures im saving up, but right now I have no way to post them. I thought about getting taptalk, but because the way my phone is set up with me being under 18 its a huge ordeal just to download an app. Any other ways to post pictures without paying for the program?
EDIT: just created a photobucket. I'll see if I can get some up later this evening

You can text them to your email, just put your email address in the phone # slot.
I believe Photobucket has an option to send them from your phone directly to your acct.

Now you dont have any excuses left. We expect them tonight. :D

My springs are too stiff to get as much as an SOA. And the tires rub when I flex too much (Fenders slice the lugs up).

Ooo yeah, look at that 4 inches of articulation! It always seems more impressive in real life, haha!

On a side note it's great to finally put a face to the name! You're right, it's green and I can tell that just sitting there, it's loud! :-bd
