I really want to try out the Holmes Hobbies servo, but yeah, due to the cost of it, I'll be ordering another D772.

There is a difference the more a shock is laid over the more a shock loses effectiveness. Which means you must run heavier springs and thicker oil to accomplish the same amount of spring rate and damping. Not to get to in depth but thicker oil can cause what is called shock pack up; this will cause the suspension not to be able to react as fast to bumps. Heavier springs will add to this effect as well. You always want to run the lightest oil and spring rates that you can for your application and terrain, but still keeping the vehicle from bottoming out or bouncing. The objective is to keep the tire in contact with the ground as much as possible.

Hey Ryan - How do you like the 86t spur gear over the stock 78t?

Silver- I sold my TH a few weeks ago (going 2.2 Comp), but yeah I liked the lower gearing as long as it's locked in 2nd gear. I also used a 30t pinion that helped a LOT on top end.

If you have any extra TH parts sitting around let me know.
