So....

The cantilever suspension just doesn't work right. Even with 100 weight oil, and heavy springs, the rear suspension is absolutely flaccid, allowing the axle to basically flop back and forth.

So I ordered a sway bar to try that, and it got lost in the mail. So then I was going to go to the V-shape configuration that many of you are running, but I had a piece missing, and if I wanted that piece, I would have to spend $16.00 plus $9.95 shipping from Korea for that parts tree.

So I dug around in my parts, and found two matching shock plate/keys. I used a pair of 90mm shocks I had in the box with 35 weight oil, and ultra soft springs, and switched the cantilever shock spring to as soft as I had, and came up with this.







I haven't had a chance to run it except on a few rocks I have out in the yard, but from what I can tell so far, it is going to keep the ass end planted the way it should be and not just flop.

You guys that have been at this awhile, do you see any problem with this setup?
