Hi, I need pictures of ford TTB systems flexing! There are a buch of solid axle swapers at my work that refuse to belive that the ford TTB system is a good system! If you have pictures of your TTB rig on an R.T.I. or even just a big rock I would like to see/share them with the people at my work!!!!
Please help me out.... Thanks.

You might want to ask yourself if there's any hope of convincing them before you go all out of your way trying to. Some people purposely refuse to admit anything besides a solid axle is worth messing around with, and no amount of evidence saying otherwise will ever change their mind. Best thing you really can do is build yours up and then show 'em how it's done next time you go offroad.

Not that great of a pic. As you can see, I hadn't lifted the rear wheel off the ground yet.

As for the non-believers ---- :thefinger:

Looking good Jim.

88BII, I would also look for a thread by gwaii. He had a TTB front end and did some pretty extreme stuff with it. He has pictures in one of his threads that probably show the most extreme flex I've ever seen with a TTB.

The only reason I didn't post his rig is because he's using a fullsize TTB and figured the op wanted examples of Ranger/B2 TTB's. Gwaii's is a flex monster.

Those guys that don't like TTB to begin with probably wouldn't know the difference between fullsize TTB and Ranger TTB anyway. :D

there is always the guys that says SAS is only way to go. TTB can work great! just takes some knowledge of the setup, the right part combination, and a little imagination!
