Jacking the car helps...but causes traction roll issues... The weight of the motor in the back just causes issues when a non buggy layout is combined with insane traction....but I digress...I am getting off topic a bit. I notice most setups for rug/astro have a ride height below 20mm...Understandably so.
Ugh...maybe I will just wait for the Xfactory car. Thanks for the info on the plastic. Glad to hear we still manufacture something good over here for a change.  |
I don't think I've ever seen an xfactory arms fully break, I've seen them crack on rare occaision, and some can break the rear tower, but it you do, you deserve a metal, 4mm of pure carbon goodness, very hard to break. You'll complain about the AE parts way before the xfactory parts.
You definitly want the ride height around 20mm (I think I'm at 18-19ish now) The higher it is the better it jumps, the more traction roll you may get. Whats your droop like? more droop will help, then add weight under the battery, that will also help.
