Default Suspension......

Trying to get a Lil more articulation out of my build.." blue face scorpion " something just isn't right....it doesn't flow like it should....too much spring, not enough damping, something but I could use some pointers.....

You already have plenty. More will only hurt you.

I agree ^^^

Articulation looks just about right.

If you want different dampening then play with different weight shock oils.

I have to agree with the others. Sometimes less is more. But one thing I would play with a bit is shock placment on the chassis. In the one pic it looks like the shock is almost laid flat at full articulation. In my experiance that can cause some funky and eradic rebound.

Your upper links are in the wrong group of holes. And since it's not got everything that will add weight to the chassis it's all pointless. It will be different when it's ready to roll.
