I got to test the rig a little today and i noticed quite a bit of torque twist. Im runnin a 4 link but im thinking that it has something to do with the springs. Any other suggestions???

Try standing up your rear shocks a bit more. We had to do the same thing on my dad's sprung setup.

Default 1st test
So i took the unit out for the first time test today over at Azusa Canyon. Found a few good spots. Ended up taking a few shots. Im stoked at how this car is turnin out. The sidehilling is amazing along with the insane down and uphill climbs.
