| JK RTR articulation problem? Help!!
So I have change my shocks to 110mm King Shocks from rc4wd because stock shocks where leaking and no Im not going back to them. Then I have the level-3 racing droop kit on this because the shocks are so large, my driveshaft angle is okay know with the droop kit. I four-linked the front and I put the axial aluminum links on. What is the cause for the left Front side to articulate around 2 inches but the right Front side articulates around 4-5? (Yes I know the articulation isn't the best but the ride height is the same as stock). Now I can adjust my suspension with the droop kit and the pre-load in the shocks. What would you guys suggest? I have my honcho that has 103mm shocks with the same set-up and it doesn't do this, and my jeep has soft suspension (which I like it that way because my gopro sits on a custom mount up on the roll cage). NOTE: I have a set of 1.9 RC4wd super-swampers on rc4wd rims (used from the honcho). Is the body sitting too low? (Keep in mind that the front body post are at the max) I appreciate the help and support, - axial 4x4 crawler P.S.: If you guys want pictures of what Im talking about then just reply saying "pictures could be useful" or something like that.lol. |

Pictures always help. Is your servo mounted on the axle or is it CMS?

You might double check all your link lengths . Ive mistakenly left out a 2mm spacer on mine before and it caused problems with articulation as well as threw my axle out of alignment. A tiny bit of difference in length can be a big deal.

Note that the servo wire is not to short and my steering link is aligned very well. Last edited by axial 4x4 crawler; 02-18-2014 at 05:24 PM. | |

| Re: JK RTR articulation problem? Help!! Yes it can, that's a good suggestion. Honestly I never ran into a weird problem like this but I'll double check my links tonight. I know for a fact that I haven't put any spacers on the links but it may be a rod end screw or something like that.lol. I appreciate the help, -axial 4x4 crawler
