body/chassis lean during hard accelartion

[bbking9]

When I gun the throttle and the Wraith takes off - one side of the body/chassis hunkers down and the opposite side raises up. Looks weird and kinda funky. I just rebuilt the shocks - so they are all pretty closely matched.

Any ideas to prevent this and have this thing take off level?

Setup:
2.75 ounces of weight in each wheel
27t Holmes motor
front and rear shock mounts flipped
front shocks in middle hole
rear shocks in forward most hole
stock springs all round
battery and all electronics up front

That is just drivetrain torque. Sway bars might help.

Yup, that's called torque twist. Lots of options to fix it. It applies to all shafties, lots of threads on it. Do a quick search and you'll find solutions.

HR sway bar kit fixed mine but you lose some flex when you do the sway bar kit though.

thanks. i have read about torque twist but had not actually seen til yesterday.

simple way to fix the torque twist. which ever tire is comming off the ground dial in some preload on the opposite rear corner shock. like if the right front come up then dial preload into the left rear and just keep adjusting til the torque twist is gone or almost gone

thanks freak - that sounds familiar from my old 1/10 touring car days 15 years ago.

Took the Wraith out yesterday over some trails and heavy duty rocks and it was MONEY. Ran perfect. Was a much better crawler than I had expected. I love this thing.

I'll work on the preloads. Thanks for the input.
