You really have a awesome crawler there. I think I have re-read this thread about 23 times. Maybe it is jealousy, or maybe it is out of spite?! Either way you have the tools to "Get er' done", lol.

Hey Dirk, you live in the Springs? Black forest is about 10 minutes away from me. You going to be in Thornton this weekend? I like to ask questions. lol
Yup.
I'm in the Forest.
I am also going to the comp this weekend.

The M3 Hammers with the firmer Proline foams seem to work much better. Great combination.
They really like to hook up on loose granite and river rock.

The shorter shocks also allow the suspension to work better too.

Should have the VF Dig in later tonight!!!

Here are some pics!

Do you feel that there is an advantage to running your links on the out side of your chassic verses the inside , can you give your reasoning for the answer also thanks .

Do you think you would see an advantage if you used bearings as spacers on your links insted of bushings?

P. Bachman! That's me!

yeah.....the sidewall flex was out of control with other memory foams.
The proline foams are perfect with the M3 Hammers.
For the M2 Hammers, Aces memory foams are kick asss!

I'm feeling good for this weekend! Watch out!

Ok. You can tell me about Pam later.

I did try to mount them on the inside.
It lost stability and there was way more axle steer during droop.
