I would think that you would need the stiffeners more on the super being it is a longer spine or do you use two different stiffness back bones?Also as someone stated b4 if the spine becomes less stiff is that when you would add stiffeners to retain the float effect?nice rigs btw and have been a fan of your 2.2s since seeing them on BYT.

So jeep I am still wondering do you run two different stiffeneses for the 2.2 and super or just stiffen the backbone of the super to reduce flex being that it is longer would it not have more flex?

Right now they are the same material. I'm working on a few different options right now. I'm pretty much the only one that even stiffens the backbones on their Super. The 2.2 has a few tiny holes drilled for more flex.

If the chassis starts to get to much flex over time you can always add the back brace to bring the flex back down. BYT..
