hey guys. Looking to get a bit more flex from my 89 soft toft.
I have herd from a few people about opening up the clamps on the leafs.
was wondering if this makes much difference and if it handles worst or anything.

and how would i do this ? grinder?
i have already taken out the load leafs.
thanks guys

I have done it, I just bent them straight up. Not cutting them.

Screwdriver/hammer/shifter to bend them.

Handles same onroad. (i think) Bit like the swaybar mod :lol: No difference.

With my leafs the flex mainly comes from the main leaf pulling and twisting away from the others.

Bend and test them. If you dont like it, You can always bend them back! :wink:
