| spreading out lower links and shocks on axle
Here's a ? for you all who fully understand 4 link, Will torque twist be more pronounced if you move the shocks and lower links out toward the tires both front and rear? I do have the clearance with the trail kings to do this, but was wondering how it will affect handling? To me, it looks like it could make the truck more stable. Let me know thanks! |

I would think leaning a shock out at the bottom will make it progressive during the stroke. Not really sure if it would be a performance enhancer or not with a solid axle.

Shocks more so than the links to the out most mounting position. It's just leverage, however still just a bandaid for tt. As with most everything else anyway, but there are better ways to combat torque twist. Search the ax10 section on ways to minimize, as the same techniques have been used for a few years now. Good luck. |

I dont have much of a issue of torque twist. The rc4wd ax2 trans is installed as they instructed. I was just wondering about the link and shock locations, if it makes it worse or better for torque twist.
