|  Tab under blue fabtech arms
hey if you cut that tab completely off under the blue fabtech arms what will happen will it help your flex any or will it make the shocks pull apart cause i have inborded the rear shocks already and when its flexed all the way out the shock just kinda starts to pull apart. Thanks Jason |

Don't cut them unless you plan on fabbing some limiting straps. The two diffs/axles will spread all the way apart or the opposite, inwards. I'd leave it like it is since you inboarded already.

i agree with hellajeep...i cut the tabs off of mine after inboarding the shocks and now on any extreme articulation points the outbaord shock will come apart

I cut mine off and inboarded my shocks. I got tons of flex. I will cut them off of my next one also. Look at this pic. This is why. In the pic you can see some other things I have done but the best way I have found is to cut the tabs. Check out my step by step process in my thread and you can get tons of flex with little work.  |

Leave 'em. I've inboarded the rear shocks and drilled out the rear pivot limiter and I get 9" of flex with that alone. The tabs under the arms are droop limiters, they don't affect flex. Just inboard the rears and drill out the limiter tabs under the pivot and you'll be golden. Oh, and trim the body, you'll need it |

I cut mine off.. After not reading.. And posted something similar to this. Glad your posting before you cut. I got MAD flex, and what not, but when it would catch traction, the whole real axle came apart, shocks and all. you could trim the blue arms, and the stops, but don`t cut them off. | |
