You need to tell us more about your setup for us to be able to help you. For example, what ride height and downstop settings are you using? What shock oil and which springs? |

Shock position, roll center and chassis flex can all affect this also. If you could post your full setup and share a link here, that would help us help you a lot. One thing I have always found to be true... when in doubt, try the kit setup. |

Looks to me like your setup should be pretty flat. Are you running a lightweight body or regular weight? The lightweight will definitely roll less than a regular weight. The only things I can see that would really induce roll are the diffs being up and the flex of the chassis. The chassis flex isn't really making the car roll but can make the car feel that way. My first thought is the body, making sure you are using a lightweight version. If you already are then I think I would look at reducing the flex first by adding the 2 rear-most screws to the layshaft bulkheads first Then you could also try the front 2 on the layshaft bulkheads to see if that gives you the feel you're looking for. You could also try lowering the diffs but I feel that will be a smaller change. I have a couple other thoughts in mind regarding shocks, but I think your shock setup is fine and the above are easier changes that should give you what you're looking for. |
