|  drove my stick today...
i finally got some flat batteries and drove the stick and i'm unimpressed. the wheelbase is like 20 inches so i know that's hurtin me and i'm unwilling to open the axles and do the shave. maybe i'll have to put it at 17 and get some Moabs...

Shaving the rear end is easier than doing a tummy tuck.

I've spent a month afraif to shave the rear. But now that I have a stick, I thought I might as well. Do it, it's worth it. Also, I have my stick at 17" WB. My next will be the same. It seems about perfect top me. And add BBs in yer tires, it helps a TON too. Cut yer tires too, if you haven't. So far, I'm thrilled with my NyStick. -=Nash |

With the setup you have right now I would be dissapointed too. Ya gatta go all the way and do it right, it's the only way that it will perform right and amaze you. Shave the rear axle, put about 8 oz of weight in each rear tire (nothing in the front), get that wheel base down to 17" (20" would be horrible, that is killing you), get some moab xl's (best mod you could possibly do), or reverse and cut the stock tires. If you do it all and do it all righ you will love it, but only if you do it ALL. Half-way do it and it's going to suck like you have right now.
