When i tried to throttle on hard(ish) coming out of a corner though, the car was trying its best to swap ends. (probably ok when grip is high)
If i use a shorter rear link i always go lighter on oil and springs as the short link makes it feel stiffer IMO
I would be happy to here from someone more knowledgable than me if i am wrong. I love these sort of threads because i learn loads from them.
interesting,iv been really struggling with my car(not a durango)at worksop along with others with the same car,and on med grip,it does the same and will spin out,i thought going stiffer on the rear would make it worse,i find the car needs to driven hard to get the grip,as soon as the grip goes and you have to drive slower it doesnt handle the same,not sure if this is due to the solid ali chassis,on high grip its awsome,if i bang a new set of tires on its ok but i want to try and get more mechanical grip to the rear as the tires give up grip quite quickly
