Depends on your terrain and preference. Somewhere between 2 & 3 inches usually works.  |

GC is going to depend on all kinds of stuff. Here is my list of factors to set GC. Driver style Terrain Rock type Weight bias and Overall weight Suspension setup, Droop sprung 50/50 or a bit of both Driving style and a bit more of driving style. There are more variables but it comes down to what you want and what you can do to make that happen. The shgort version is to kick off at 2.5" for a 1/10 or 2.2 size rig and then work out what you want from there. For me low is good  |
