It'll flex somewhat with some time driving.... Is it from Jpcutoms' or homemade? Is it a 2.2 pimpcane or a super? 2.2 cane is stiffer than the super. If you want it to flex asap, then you could drill some holes.

x2 on what mudsy is saying the longer the WB the more give in the chassis. so if your running it as a 2.2 its going to have a shorter WB thus less flex. the quick fix would be to drill some holes but then you might have to much flex down the road. the best thing to do is drive it. the more you drive it the more the chassis will relax. and some pic' would be nice. so we can see what you are talking bout, and the more info the better ei...( WB, homemade or jpcustoms )

Non-drilled version is way to stiff... You can drill 1/4 holes on the sides of the pimpcane. Mine came with 3 holes on driver's side and 6 on the other side. This is with flip version. meaning the rear gearcase is flip backwards for more clearence. Hope this helps.
