Yes, while I started with drakes setup to the T minus the rear green spring( don't have em yet but will for this weekend. First I changed our the rear swaybars to a 2.7, then i changed the rear link to the 1-A setting. I found the front end needed some more dampening so I switched to the split pistons1.2/1.3 from the 1.3x8 with the same 37.5wt oil.I also went up in oils in the rear from 30 to 35 at. The car was money. I still have some slight tweaking to do but I am super happy and excited about committing to running this car. I'm gonna buy a nother kit this weekend. I think the great rear spring will give it that little bit extra mid corner steering I'm looking for.

Is your track pretty blown out, if so I would stick to drakes piston and oil shock setup.

And to anybody who thinks this car is a 2.0 with some slight improvements, your way off, this car drives 10x better, for real. I am now gonna have to get rid of the Durango truggy for the 8ight T 3.0 and through the e conversion on it.
