rear shock tower ,inner
front shock tower,middle
front arm mount,outer
rear arm mount,second from innermost
front spring ,white
rear spring,assosiated green
every thing else is like the teemu setup
The first thing I noticed was the lower shock mount for the rear. I've always like the second from the outside (stock position) Moving it in that far really seemed inconsistent. Like PW just posted, that's going to stand the shock up and theoretically, should give it more traction. But when you adjust the lower position, you're giving the wheel more leverage on the shock, which makes it MUCH softer. So it's going to dump over hard and probably snap loose mid corner and want to spin out. So moving that out one would be my first adjustment and go from there.
