Torque twist

[johnrobholmes]

I use enough preload to keep the springs loaded when fully drooped. I also add internal springs to make the rig 50/50 droop/sprung. With the way that crawler is set up, you could stand up the rear shocks more too.


To try and combat the torque twist, you could bring your lower links in closer to center at the chassis side. You need to bring the roll center down a bit.

Your shocks are too short to have a 50/50 setup though, it is set up best for full compression.

What do you think about using hi clearence links on the FR ?.My crawler has the tcs 4 link convestion plates on the FR & RR the rear. Im running the asemetrical setup to help with the torque twist on the RR . How should i mount the FR upper links to the TCS plate, on the top or bottom or does it not matter ?.
