Rear Suspension Setup

[leverington]

What difference should I see in changing the springs front and rear and how does it affect handling? I did have soft’s front and rear and have changed them to mediums.

Now that I have changed them the car crabs down the lounge under hard acceleration. If it pulls to the left (looking from behind) is it best to slacken the right or tighten the left? Bad I know as I have already forgotten L

I just found part of the answer Doh!

If, when you pull away the car pulls to one side, but later straightens up, you can cure the problem using the rear suspension. If the car pulls to the right, tighten the right hand nut, and loosen the left one a little (looking from back of car). Do this in 1/4 turn increments until the car pulls away straight. If the problem persists, consider replacing the spur gear, as they wear out.

one thing i have found, i took the O ring out and i put 4mm of fuel pipe instead of the O ring, made my back end feel so nice with medium rear springs
