    MT suspension

    suspension damping

    Lots of hop=ups for cars-the skys the limit- but not much in the way of suspension - yea, hpi has adjustable pistons- Germans have check balls- yet another uses AL+ rubber cup- there are 3-4 hundred dollar shocks out there-too rich for my blood- here is another idea to slow down the rebound...

    suspension arm holder

    Can any one tell me why the new style suspension arm holder for an mt is adjustable, on the front diff both arm holders are the same and on the rear the front holder is the same as both of the fronts and the rear one on the rear diff is wider making them toe in

    Front upper suspension arm

    I just recently got an MT V4. I love the truck. I broke the front upper suspension arm tierod today though. I wasn't bashing or being rough. Just hit a pot hole and the thing snapped in half. Has anyone else had that problem? Is there a good upgrade so that doesn't happen anymore?

    Stiff Suspension

    Just got my MT today. does anyone else think the stock suspension setup is way to stiff dampening wise? mine will actually bounce on the front tires before the suspension moves. don't think the springs are too stiff really, just seems like it needs much thinner oil. I will say this, its my first...

    MT/TT V3 Suspension Arms on a XB?

    I was curious to know if the droop control screw locations on a V3 MT/TT suspension line up with the droop tabs on a XT/XB chassis. If they do I think I will end up running them on my XB along with the older beefier steering system and wheel hubs/axles. If anybody with both cars can verify...

    suspension arm question

    I broke a front right upper tie rod that connects the upper arm to the hub, and the engine isn't even broken in yet:( I noticed that I can't buy just that piece so does the aluminum replacement have a stronger tie rod or is it the same as the stock plastic ones? I'm gonna buy extras but if the...

    Suspension setup question

    Ive converted my Rampage MT into a truggy using baja adapters and tires and TT gears, wing, and bumpers. I love the results, excellent traction and handling but the rear end is uncontrollable. It bounces up over every bump and hill, and when jumping goes higher than the front, making landings...

    Suspension limiting straps

    With these heavy MT tires I think I will pull the shocks apart when jumping. I have straps on my Baja but don't see how I could mount something lime that on my Rampage. My chassis does not have q ace for droop screws. How are you guys running yours? Is there a hop up to do here?

    Suspension

    Do you guys know if redcat is going to offer different angle bushings to adjust the rear toe on the Xs? and if they are going to be offer in aluminum? one of my rear bushing is starting to give way!!! and I'm also tweaking the suspension to make it a bit more agile.

    How the hell is this going to work (aluminum suspension support)

    Hey, I bought a new front aluminum diff housing and front aluminum rear suspension support which goes behind the diff housing, but the rod can go right through the rear suspension support cause it has a hole all the way through, unlike the plastic one whhich has the hole covered up. Did I get...

    Iv had my MT for about a year now. I keep blowing out the seals in the shocks!! does anybody make a GOOD aftermarket shock that will fit the MT? How about redcats upgraded suspension? I would really have something that is made as a direct upgrade but I guess if push comes to shove I would do...
