Hi all
I have a concern that my rear droop screws do not touch the chassis and therefore are useless. The car is setup for carpet with 56.5mm tires, ride height 5mm and the shock tower is in position 2 with the arm position Outside.
With this setup, I get maybe 1.5mm droop if lucky but nothing more cause the shocks are fully extended. I treid moving to position 1 and still the same. How can i get more rear droop if needed?
Thanks

Unscrew the shock ends about 2 turns. That makes the shocks longer and gives you more down travel.

Also check on how you built the shocks, per the instructions. You do not want to screw the shock ends all the way in.
I am running tires at 55mm and still can get at least 5mm of droop if I want too.

Hi all
I reset the shock eyelet to give me a total length of 64mm. I can now get up to 4mm droop. I am going to run with a 1mm droop front and 1.5mm rear per the Carpet setup. I just wanted to make sure I had some room for adjustment.
Thanks

Hi all
Does anyone have a copy of the old Trinity pitbox tool referencing the Foam tires? It has been lost since they changed the look of the website

I found that if you run a high roll centre, esp. at the front, you have to remove some material from the a-arm on the inside or the c-hub will hit the arm and you can't get enough ride height, let alone droop if you run real small foams (55-56mm). May be irrelevant here but might help someone
