That bellcrank makes a huge difference in just how it feels compared to stock. Good luck it's a nice build

Are you posting video somewhere of your first run?

It's the front sway bar.

I've fitted the rear sway bar kit because a friend had the axial one and he broke the drop links the first time he ran it, so though I would get it upgraded before I broke it

I will get some kind of vid if the first run, I'm not really into video editing or this YouTube nonsense tho

That's the first time I've heard of the rear sway bar breaking. I do like the looks of the hot racing one though.

I've pulled a stabilizer link apart once.. 5$ HR limiting straps take care of this and also protect your shocks & control links

Tyres all glued up ready for a run tomorrow, it's going to be a muddy one, we've had rain for the last few days over here in the U.K.

Does your HR front sway bar hit the front dog bones when you compress the suspension on both wheels?

Just looked and it's very close at full compression, but they just clear

I'm running Baja helper springs on the front, so they limit the up travel of the shock a bit

Check out your front knuckles...I've gotten them mixed up before as well as 2nd hand ones that I've perchanced.. Its easily overlooked when you have the carriers right...

Once again... I really appreciate your patience with the HD mod ! I'm sorry it took me so long to get it back to you and a few others! You were way more patient and understanding than I would've been Thank you

IMO the XL has too much up travel. In the designing stages it would been nice to Axial split the difference a little closer to center line.
