Weight has no effect on the droop setting. Droop sets to bottom limit that the arms can extend at full extension. Its easiest to set the car up on blocks or a stand and take the wheels off then measure the length of the shocks. There are some fancier methods out there, but thats the simple and effective way.


Droop is actually a very powerful tuning adjustment. Can really effect how the car handles.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
