Yeah... That's cool.

Truck looks like it performs well. Do you ever have any rear axle waving with the shocks that flat?

The Hulksta and the Sudu chassis are similar in the rear. I have the Op's set up like that for the XR and it works great, but I have to use a stiffer spring to overcome the leverage.

Hey now...the SC guys know I'm a fan of a big booty, but the name started when I built my 1:1 Samurai and it was "ittybitty" compared to my Jeep. Then when I came to RC crawling...well they were even smaller so the name carried over

Back to the tech...

Derrick...what are you currently running for springs and oil...especially in the rear?

Oil is around 60wt b/c the label has worn off the bottle I wanna try some heavier oil and may try some green springs in the rear. Silvers are on the rears and pinks on the fronts

Picked up some 2000 diff oil and another pack of springs. I want to try to spacing the rear upper links at the axle.

Hey Ryan you got that in the front and rear of your shocks?

2,000 should be a good starting point but I would imagine you'll end up wanting something thicker...probably closer to 10,000. The stiffer springs will definitely help settle the rear end down too...making it much more predictable in those hairy situations...and keeping the front situated too

Does the thick oil make that big of difference? I haven't noticed much of a gain from the 40-80wt difference, if any honestly. sorry for a small thread jack

Going from 40-80 wouldn't show all that much of a difference, but when you start talking about 60wt to 20,000 diff oil there's a pretty significant difference. With the shocks laid down so much you've really gotta work to slow down their movement or your rig really starts doing quirky things.

Well I ran the green springs on the rear at two locations, but @ Bald Rock with the steep inclines that require the truck to flex while go almost straight up. The greens wouldn't budge resulting in picking up the front tire. SO I am gonna try the silvers with heavier oil.
