your rear clip is not on the chassis properly or the shock end is on backwards stopping the arm from dropping all the way down. post a pic and we can diagnose quickly.

the only thing I could think of is there is a bind somewhere that lifts the one side when the other side is lifted. or the sway bar is too tight or too hard. but this may be the case since based on your post that both droop screws touch the chassis.

on this truck my max droop setting is just enough to reach the full travel of each shock.

all brackets are seated onto chassis correctly. diff housing is seated correctly onto brackets/chassis. shock ends are on correctly. checked all measurements a million times and i still get the passenger side rear arm to hang 3.5mm lower than the drivers side rear arm.

sure i can get both sides to droop equal using the droop screws but i would think both sides would be closer than 3.5mm difference without using screws. if you back your droop screws all the way out and have the shocks still connected. will your arms droop low enough to touch the chassis or does the shock length hold them up off the chassis? without using your droop screws, whats the difference in droop you have side to side?

Measure your shocks. Make sure they are equal. With shocks off, test arms. Lift both sides up and they should move smoothly and drop. If not, you've got a bind. Now set your droop with out shocks. Do the same test. I have noticed that the droop screws gets stuck and don't settle in the grooves correctly, leaving one side higher until I press down.

all that checks out ok. cant really set droop with the shocks off cuz once i install them the droop will be wrong. the shock length does not let the arms fall all the way to the chassis. thats why i asked if everyone elses arms touch the chassis with the droop screws backed out. (using middle hole on both arms and shock tower)

Full droop (screws backed off completely), middle hole in tower and arm my arms don't rest on the chassis. Shock length/droop is 127-128.

I haven't ran my truggy in a while. Been busy. But so far I was able to find the grip I was looking for and more steering. Got a race on Saturday and will post my setup afterwards, with results.

Either 7/10/3 or 10/10/3 in diffs depending on traction and steering. 37.5 8-1.3 in front and rear. Middle hole on tower inside hole on arm for front shocks middle on tower and arm for rear tower. And run the camber links middle inside hole on tower inside hole on hub. Mid or lower inside hole on tower and all the way out on upright for the rear.
