I've been experimenting with ride heights with the new shocks and I've found that the smoothest and fastest I could drive was when I had backed off on the spring preload to allow for.ore droop at ride height than how they came in the box. I don't really need the vehicle lifted but I DO want to maximize traction and control when I'm driving fast off road. Currently I have the coilovers set to maximize the up travel instead for jumping but it affects the ride quality negatively when just bombing down trails so I'm going to put them back to having more droop again.
Cool video! But why are you using a rear locker? You're going at a high speed and you seem to have good traction, and from my understanding, lockers should only be used when you're basically stuck or going over very uneven terrain at low speeds. I would be worried about destroying your diff or snapping an axle at speeds like that. Just my 2 cents!
@@junkhams Great point! I was experimenting with different settings and did end up finding that the vehicle drove better without the rear locker engaged in specific areas.
