For me, the most impactful change was raising the front diff silicone. I now have it at 7K front. The trouble is I really hate giving up that off power turn in you lose by raising the front diff...

This being my first 1/8th scale it was all pretty new to me and very different than any of the 2WD buggies I have played with in the past. I originally purchased all of the swaybars up to the 3.0mm....

Was the buggy purchased new? I ask because the stock shocks on the 48.3 can easily go well past those Lutz setup numbers with the set screws for droop screwed all the way in.

If you built the kit...

According to the manual, 25/70 is a good place to start. It is not too difficult to work out the same ratio for other spur gear combinations.
