wild cat i will tell you how i got to my setup it all starts in the street with the shit stock tires if you get it to work on the street first then it is only small adjustment to get it working on the track but what you described earlier is what My would do be for as soon as you let off the gas it swop's ends this is to things one the rear is unloading and all the weight is going to the front wheels this happens if the springs are to soft it has nothing to do with roll you my wont to use the out side hole on the arms if that fixes the problem but you lose the exit control chang the sway bar to softer

Cheers,

im using 32 in the front and 27.5 in the rear but i just race. i guess it all depends on what you want to do as far as bashing, big air your gonna need a thicker oil to help dampen the truck on landings. if it bounces to much on the small bumps go to a thinner oil.

Not saying these are the best answers, but it's something easy enough to try! No new equipment necessary.


I just punch it ....

Maybe I missed it, but you mentioned a few parts so which one of the custom made parts are you slanging? Or is it all of the above?

Anyone know if people are still using the Trackstar O-Rings as a replacement for the stock ones?

I remember it was a hot upgrade a few months back? Just wondering if its still a good investment or if something better has come along... Thanks!
