Torque Twist

[thebeast]

What is the best way to try and get rid of torque twist....

[chris w]

Split the upper links to a true 4 link. Then move the lowers in close together at the chassis to give the suspension good triangulation with the uppers spread. And add under drive gears to the rear. Cost yah about $60 bucks in parts.

Try the search button. There are tons and tons of threads dealing with this issue.

k. i have the 4 link servo plates set up. but have not moved anything around...

Move your shocks to the outside of the axle and move you lower links inward on the axle and the chassis, I got my spur and pinon gears facing the front and it works for me. I still have a 3 link and it got rid of of my TT.

I did the four link in the rear Left link on top of plate right link below plate, helped some. flipped trans helped some, finally added one thick preload spacer to the left rear shock, i can now make this thing wheelie when geared right. It will pull both front tires straight up in the air from reverse to forward.

Funny thing about always posting Try a search is, you get lots of threads that simply say to try a search and can be discouraging to new members and to new people who may not be completely familiar how a message forum works, im sure everyone here has posted before searching when there is multiple threads on a subject

The 2 things I would recommend is putting a heavier shock oil in the left rear shock and the Axial Optional Gears. The search feature is great on this site you just have to be very specific. Another thing I would do is Look up a build thread for either Bender or Gatekeeper. These are 2 of the best Axial drivers out there

Run more anti squat on the side that squats.

[calikingcrawler]

Try mirroring your trans too.

[LIKES2CRAWL]

Longer upper links in the rear running parelell (sp) with lower links pinned in at the chassis. Like this I/\I then move your rear shocks out to the farthest point on axle...may need to space them out some at the chassis too if they feel like there binding.

[grimgard]

Lots of good advice in this thread. You will never get rig of Torque twist but you can reduce it. Easy and cheap fix is put a spacer and/or stiffer spring on the left rear shock. A 4 link will help as well (as stated in another post)

Thanks, i will switch some stuff aroud and see how it does in the comp on July 11th... you guys all rock...

It also cures hemmeroids, back acne, does your taxes, orders pizza, and is the preffered method of birth control in third world countries. Tomorrow I'm going to put it in a sprayer and spray the yard to keep the moles away.

Yes, and here's another thread added to that list.

My point was, if you spend a little time looking before asking, you'll usually come up with your answer, and it'll happen much faster than posting and waiting for a reply. Theres also a great thread on setting up a 4-link, but I'm not going to tell you where it is.
