Testing axle flex and interference

Jeeps are designed to allow the axles to articulate a long ways.  These stands are designed for you to be able to max that out so you know how much flex you have (so you know what obstacles you can tackle), and to make sure all your steering and stabilizing components still clear each other.  Here you can see how much stretch you can get when one side drops (top pic) and how stuffed up into the wheel well the other side gets (bottom pic).  Nothing was touching in either direction so I'm pretty happy.
