My change is a small one. I thought my rig felt good at the "Fallout" comp, but later that week when I hit Black Rock I wasn't happy. It still had a bunch of torque twist. I went through and noticed that when the rear suspension would cycle the axle would shift ever so slightly to the side. That could only mean that my links are not adjusted right. I went home and checked them out, made some tweaks and now I need to test again. I didn't go yesterday (wife stuff) so I may try to do a makeup today, but we'll see how the day goes. |
