|  optimum Ground Clearance? What is the optimum ride hieght for an Edge chassis with an internal spring setup? I am running TCS meduim springs - Full spring under piston, half on top. IMy GC is right at 2.5 inches with this setup and seems a little low. Thanks! |

| Im at about 2.5" of GC...but the bottom of my rig is completely delrin so it doesn't really matter  I personally wouldn't want mine to be any higher than 2.5". (I run full droop susp) Find the best height for YOUR specific setup. Last edited by Trugg; 07-18-2008 at 05:29 PM. |

| if it seems too low, raise it. if it seems too high, lower it. there is no "perfect" ride hight, it is all in the experimentation. this answer is also good for shock oil, tire weight, tires, chassis, wheels, shocks, springs, gearing, batteries, you get the point. EXPERIMENT! Good day |

| How do I raise it? Do I add longer springs to the top off the piston. Right now I am running 1/2 of a spring on top. |
