Mounting your rear shocks more vertical also helps.

Stiffer spring on left rear shock, if that’s the one compressing on torque twist. Thicker oil More vertical rear shocks Triangle, mount the links on chassis closer to each other and farther apart on axle. |

There's no magic link/shock set-up that works everywhere. Terrain, driving style and rig set-up all play a role in how your rig performs.

hit the searche mode theres been at least 2 threads on this that i know of one was started by myself.Ideffinatly learned alot and my rig has very little t.t. now.EEPEE is the man on this subject he helped me alot dez had some good input also,good luck.i also used some dual stage shock pistons this really finished it off.on the right side i have more dampning on extension.On the left side i have more dampning on the compression ,dosent seem to affect traction to much but it helped t.t. alot.KEEP YOURE CHASSIS AS LIGHT AS YOU CAN ALSO THIS WAS DUI DIRKS THEory on the reverse cowgirl build,ive crawled with him and it worked really good.

So, 1) more anit squat or keep links parallel helps..... 2) puttin shocks more vertical than horizontal works to reduce TT... Hope this helps an issue that keeps coming up... It should be a sticky or.....? |
