[QUOTE="Wes in TN, post: 172279, member: 471"] My buggy does something funky that I don't like on climbs. Here is what it does on climbs: [IMG]http://fototime.com/F4E024DB19BAD0F/standard.jpg[/IMG] As you can see all the weight transfers to the right rear when I'm climbing something. It's bad enough that the paint on the right rear springs is gone. There rear end is centered and square. I'm used to leaf springs on all four corners, I miss that stability and predictability. I want to tune this suspension to be more "balanced". These are the only shots I have of the rear suspension. I'll try to get some better shots later. [IMG]http://fototime.com/ABBABAE4B5EFC00/standard.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://fototime.com/F148D047DDE8EE7/standard.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://fototime.com/2228D456F217DFC/standard.jpg[/IMG] Any ballpark ideas of where to start to fix this? I want the rear to be more "stable" with less side to side lean. Is a sway bar the best way to address this or would tweaking the coilovers and upper frame mounts have any affect? I'm lost when it comes to setting up link suspensions and could really use some help. [/QUOTE]
