From working on dirt bikes, I bet you could run thicker shock oil to get it a little more stiff if you wanted.

Just noticed when you were backing out, your driver side reverse light is not working

Slowly, you're getting there Austin... Kudos! EDIT: I actually have never seen shocks undergoing a service/adjustment, what a world.

Really interesting to follow this suspension story, right from the start. Kudos for having the courage to pull the shocks apart and re-valve. I would have definitely fucked that job up 😊

If you are only putting a rear sway bar i would recommed put in front of the rear axle and the links in the arms. You will get better results.

It was a pain for me to set up my RC crawler suspension with lots of trial and error. The shocks are very similar to yours as well in RC. But it's waaay more work that you have to do, props

Check Rock Jock swaybar kits. They might have one to fit you front. You will want a disconnect kit as well

Good job, made a difference, after rear sway bar, you are OK! This build needs rear fenders, get the ones, Jeep has, they look very similar with your front ones ! Also, did you cam your LS1, sounds great !=)

I noticed that too. Probably just some minor wiring issue

Que vontade de entender o que você falou

@snapfish89 2 ай бұрын

I don't know anything about suspension, but judging by the video. My opinion is that the springs are too soft. Looking at the front, it looks like it almost wants to hang out around the bump stops. But again, I don't know lol

@anthonywoodall8854 2 ай бұрын

Having that big of a gap between upper and lower springs is causing some of that. Upper is too soft

One of your back lights is out man

@pitt42075 2 ай бұрын

I would do a sway bar on the front. You can alway unlink it if you feel it’s necessary in the rocks.
