Also I added some preload to the front springs to stiffen them up and it is jumping alot better but we'll see how it goes at the track tomorrow.
preload doesnt' stiffen the springs, it just adjusts your ride height. If your jumping improved then you most likely were chassis slapping during the jump before the change.
