Flex ramp competition with stock arms?

[dylansalrin]

I am going to a Jeep show tomorrow and they have a flex ramp as a fun attraction. I don’t have adjustable arms (I actually still have the stock control arms and just coil spacers). Will I really mess up my suspension if I try the flex ramp with the stock suspension? My bump stops are dialed in and all that but just curious if you need adjustable control arms to get that crazy articulation.

As long as your bump stop is dialed in, you’ll be just fine. The stock arms are actually a better design than a lot of aftermarket arms out there! They’ll flex more than you think.

You'll be absolutely fine. The stock arms flex more than many "upgraded" arms do. Your articulation is limited by the shocks, just like everyone else.

No need for adjustable control arms to hit the RTI ramp. As long bump stos are dial in you may have peace on mind. Done this many times. A plus is to disconnect the front sway bar. Enter the ramp in a 10 to 15° angle no straight, you want to just climb with the front tire. If go straigth and you manage to go up to the point the rear tire touch the ramp this may limit your adrenaline.
The RTI ramp is Fun. Hope you enjoy it!!
Post some picks.

Edit
Sway bar for track bar.

Only if you want to put on a really good show.

Speaking of ramping, I always enjoyed these videos.
