First off welcome to the site. If you want flex take the shocks off the axle and mount them to the ends of the bumpers thats about as far as you can go without extending it.any questions just ask man.

you do affect the turning radious a bit but in my opinion its worth the little draw back to climb better...

If you lock the rear diff it will hamper the turning big time if you lock it use hotglue it will take some of the shock out and will keep you from tearing stuff up i used it and it works awsome. I also trimmed some of the front and rear frame off so that it could flex more the axle was hitting the frame.
