[QUOTE="mac5005, post: 552626, member: 4650"] [b]Re:[/b] Get the AS down some. Closer to 70 the better, with adjustable frame side upper mounts for 60 and 80. The higher the AS the more wheel hop you will get in uphill loose, and or dry climbs. The suspension will extend to fight the squat, and eventually remove some weight transfer from rear, the tire will spin and then start that cycle over again causing wheel hop. Make sure you have plenty of triangulation when viewing the links from the side as well, to counteract what I mentioned above. Ideally you want the upper links longer that the lowers to keep the pinion pointed at the tcase output through traveling. Shorter uppers will work against you and point pinion away from tcase through travel, but will help keep the AS consistent through travel. Balance pinion change with AS change through travel by changing upper link length. Lowering the front AD (AS) will help maintain steering feel when braking. Too much will prevent good weight transfer, creating understeer and poor brake performance Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
