Re: Suspension question

Did you drive it previously? They do tend to ride..... like a truck.

You actually have decent travel there, even up front.

Shocks are more effective the closer to vertical they are. These were engineered with some angle. Lowering them adds more angle. And more steeply angled shock should ride ~softer~, because it is less effective.

My leaf packs have 8 leaves in them. It's very... truck like. Mind you, I have not driven a tank.
