Yes I have had my share of torqe roll problems, but I can honestly say that I think I have eliminated as much as I can on a shaft driven truck.

I think there are 3 major things that help eliminate torqe roll.

1. Shock positioning and spring rate's used.
2. Link triangulation, mounting positions of the links.
3. (As Dirk recently mentioned) Low gearing, use a gear reduction and/or and lathe motor.

I am completly done with my TXT suspension. I might change the shocks to slightly longer ones just to get a little more center clearance but if they do not work as well as the Integy shock/springs I am using then I will go back.

Last night I took out the mammoth gear reduction and I am installing a GD-600 just to see if there is big difference.
