shock set-up
Hey what's up? Just wondering the best shock set-up for clodzilla 2 chassis. I jump this truck off everything and do not like the set-up on it now, which is shocks mounted on stand-offs from frame and angled plates on the axle stays. Doesn't seem to have even geometry and binds on articulation pretty bad even with shimming. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.....Thanks

RE: shock set-up
i only have four on it. it seems like it's the mounting brackets that are off, any recomendations for lower mounts that work good, thinking about just using the mounts that clamp on the links. thanks

If they just use regular eyelets riding on bushings, that may be your problem.

RE: shock set-up
just the shock eye with ball. i think i am going to go with clamp type mounts directly on the links so that they are even with the chassis. i will let you know how it works out when i do. thanks
