My Maxx has been at home for several months while I've been away at school. I can't wait to run it on the upcoming spring break. I still have to install the front sway bar.

Hey Zack... the mechanics of the layout works well... but i think the bars are a little thin to make good influence with the heavy springs installed on the shocks...
for 1" of movement I make with one arm, I get about 1/4" of travel on the other... I am currently using 2.5mm and 2.7mm bars for now... I am going to do a search
for some 3mm or 3.5mm spring steel to see if the movement can be increased further...
Regarding your setup... I did try a similar orientation to yours, but i noticed that the angle of the bar did not allow for enough leverage... The bar had little movement...
Did you try to see what kind of movement you would get with the shocks off? I looked at a few setups from different makes and they all seem to have the same orientation,
perpendicular to the suspension arm...
I'll see if i can get the truck together this week for testing...
