The SC5m is much better with grey front springs and going up in front oil. It also needs the ball diff to be run much tighter than in a buggy. If you run it loose, it turns in too hard and diffs out on exit.

Ive adapted a front sway bar to my truck (JConcepts SC10 bar) and use a standard B5M rear bar and this also makes a big difference to stability in high speed sweeping corners.

Here is my setup sheet from 2 weeks ago (note that I was using 4mm trail not 2mm trail - mistake on the sheet).

Thanks!
Would you recomment the front sway bar? I think I might tighten the Diff. It SHOULD be way to loose, cause I ran on Carpet the first time. That may be a forgotten issue
