Well I was a little bored today so I decide to go to a local warehouse and test out a loading dock. In these pics i have 2" shackles and torsion twist on 30's. I still have the stock shocks on so i'm not getting as much flex as I can... But anyways here ya go, Enjoy...

If you disconnect your front sway bar and throw away your rear sway bar you will have more flex.

Yeah thats what I was going to say. Looks like you are being limited by the sway bars because you have a fair amount of space between the rear tire and wheel well. You will get more sway especially if you remove the front one so go with some sort of disconnectable set up for the front links. The rear bar may not affect you too much but like Bennedict found out in Penn. you need the sway bars to pass inspection so if you remove the rear don't throw it out. Your set up almost exactly like mine. (See signature)

You will need to remove the rear sway bar link pins from the ends of the bar to the frame and the mounts that mount the bar to the rear axle. The pic on the left is for the link pin and the right for the axle mount. I hope this helps. There is a thread on here about disonnectable front links that I need to do because I have 1 broken link pin anyway. Good luck.
