| suspension help, please.
So, I'm not a total noob to RC, but have built my first solid-axle trail truck. A MST CMX. To get to the point, the truck has severe torque-twist under acceleration of any kind. To the point it is almost lifting the front right tire from the ground. I've tried running stiffer rear springs, to no effect. Any tips on what I should look at, I'm stumped. Any links to suspension set up tips? Anything is appreciated. |

pictures would help us see what you have done but .... try to get the shocks outside of the links and chassis and as upright as possible try inboarding the lower links at the chassis. that is, mount the links inside the chassis or better yet, closer together to create more of a triangle mirror the transmission so it spins the other direction you can search these things here or even youtube good luck |

Maybe fab up a swaybar. I did it on my Ascender and it slowed it up a good bit. Limits articulation some, but no real issue for me.

I'm also new to crawling but a long time racer. My SCX had horrible twist until I mirrored the transmission.
