Default Wroncho link help? I have searched honestly... :-(

Hello. The rig runs superb in every way apart from on steep gradients the left front tire as looking when I'm stood behind it lifts causing it to unbalance.

I have flipped the transmission but this did not seem to fix it and caused the drive shaft to sit at a worse angle so I put it back. I have been reading about mirroring it but the tire that is lifting is the side with the motor on? So moving the weight would not resolve from what I gather as it is in the correct place.

I have added some pics. Hope this helps.

Pics fine thanks. Do you think my links are the cause? Your drive shaft sit the same as mine. Do you get lift/torque twist?

Am getting there. After reading some more on general torque twist remedies I have...

- Stiffened the opposite shock to the corner that lifts.
- Lifted the rear end a little so squat affects it less
- Moved the heavier of the two front wheels on to the corner that lifts (One suffers water ingress and one does not).

I know the only reply that was here disappeared but as the post is still here I thought the info maybe useful to someone who stumbles across it.

Ta.

Running with under drive gears in the rear diff and stock or over drive gears in the front diff will help with the torque twist.

Ah that's good to know. I was thinking of over driving the front. Help her crawl even better.

Okay....5hrs of tinkering! She is now sat a lot lower (similar to Zonkered) and looks a lot better. The Torque twist is better until I do fast-ish right hand turns or climb at certain angles. I have read so much stuff on this now!

I think my next options are:

- Stiffen the opposite rear shock
- weight the front corner that lift. (This hides the Torque twist)
- See if I can mod a rear ARB. I don't really want to loost rear flex though.

I have also wondered if using a panhard would help?

Thanks

Hi Dan.

I am not. Both yourself and Zonkerd are and have recommended them so I'm going to look into it.

Thanks.

I've won! Complete rear droop and fixed the front upper links. Slung it real low like Zonkerds for low COG. :-)






Thanks or the help folks. :-)
