spin the front upper mount around?

noticed it on some one elses light truck and liked the feel it gave mine even being a bit heavier.

When you run the same chassis as one of the top drivers, asking questions is how you gain info to better your own game, who better to ask than the chassis designer?

.95 at the inner face of the wheel where the bead sits.

Jeremy(Hope I remembered your name right lol)


Could you measure the distance from the center of the holes, on the chassis between your lower links? It looks like the link placement is very similar to my HighlandCrawler chassis. It would be interesting to do some comparative testing.

Sexy chassis BTW. I may have to try one. I like how simple it is. Ive never tried a carbon chassis. My old delrin chassis seemed to give me a little tortion feel in the rear when the shock mounts would flex, so I may try something different to see how I like it. A few locals use your chassis, and love em.


One more question: Why dont you put more holes for the upper link mounts, lower on the chassis? I have always liked the way my truck drives with the rear lowers mounted pretty low on the chassis, and the fronts about in the middle.

i have never really liked that little separation at the chassis... maybe due to the different terrain we run on here.

Got about 5- 6 packs through today with 6 oz of knuckle weight and it felt really good.

Quick pic of the clearances

It's been a fridged bitch!

I know I never liked them previously but I thought I would give them a go with this lighter setup.

Seems to be working very well so far...

Made some link adjustments today and the rear was planted like no other.

I can't man-handle the truck like I could before but that may just be a driving adjustment I can make.

He is so wound up I left my Berg in his shop and he rebuilt it. It walks lines I have been trying to drive for the last 4 years. Flat out walks up and over them. I am dropping my super off Monday morning just in case it bothers him enough to fix it.
