Front I'm running yellow avid springs, inner hole on tower, outer on arm, 2mm on camber link and 2mm on bumpsteer.
Rear I went to the white avid spring, 4th hole on tower, inner on arm. A hub, unshaved u-brace with 1 washer.

You come into a corner with alot of speed and the rear end looses grip.

From my experiences, that means the front end is too soft and rolling too much. I run AE red springs in the front and it helped a ton with the rear end unloading. I've ran sway bars to test it, and didn't like them at all.

I have had great success with the jc swaybar kit. Left my setup alone and added them. I am an average driver and have the fastest laps of the night 2 weeks in a row.

Anyone run an aluminum front bulkhead at all? Any recommendations on brands? Grub screws?

Hideeho
I put one on my kids t4. I put an RPM bumper on to protect the arms. Hitting the bumper pulled the screws out of the top plate. Added the aluminum top plate & all was right with the world. He's 10 & doesn't take it seriously at all so I have never bothered to set up the truck properly, so I can't say what the weight does the the balance. I can say the front is all but bullet proof!

edit: oops, I read bulkhead & thought top plate. I installed an aluminum top plate on my sons t4.

I like the associated bulkhead myself. It does add a small amount of weight but seems to work for me. If you are asking what a grub screw is, I call them set screws as well.
