    Thanks for the info! I’m not racing yet, but need the info to fight the buck and other high speed anti roll situations!i have a 19 SS SE that was really soft from the dealership and I think the springs got softer after a couple hundred miles so reset ride height but needed a jumping off point for high speed drive ability! I think you guys might have provided just the magic potion I needed! Thanks again for your time and knowledge!!

    Also on your measurements you need to reference the crossover nut to the slider not the preload nut. You can set the preload nut much lower to lower your ride height and then put your cross over nuts just above your slider and that is a more definite measurement. For short course I run my slider 1/8" off my cross over nut so all the tender spring does is take up the small chatter.

    Good video. there are all kinds of different set ups to get you around the track. I finally had to go to a front sway bar to keep the car from going up on 2 wheels all the time. Now it corners flat and does well. I have been tossing around the idea of getting rid of the X3 and going to a YXZ and stepping down to that class. I suspect it would be just as much fun while not having the car on the ragged edge all the time. I am sure I will miss the speed an power though is my only thought.

    My 17 yxz has X2 shocks. Is it possible to tighten the springs up that much on these? The other adjustments made a huge difference. I do a lot of road riding to hit the trails and would like a tighter ride.

    quick question im running the exact same setup with the weller short course springs and stock shocks with all the preload taken out and full max compression and when I was running a little taller hoosiers I never had this issue but I recently switched to a 27" maxxis ceros and now sometimes off of bigger jumps or whoops the rear skid plate will actually bottom out and smack the ground, what would you recommend to stop it from doing that? add a little preload? or do you think the shock is just getting a little worn?

    Do you guys every ride the trails? Do you have a Tails set up you run.

  • @Smoking_Nun

    What stage springs did you guys use? 1 or 2?

    Just wondering, and I apologize if it was mentioned in the video because I must have missed it then. What ride height front and rear are associated with these settings?

    I have a talon r livevalve not much I can do to lower the center of gravity, what do you think of me using limit straps to achieve that.

    Hi guys I have a 2017 YXZ SE with the X2's what's your thoughts on a better ride for this setup?

  • @jasonbilow2877

    Would these setups still apply to stock springs? I just got a 21 xtr. We have a track here buy has no jumps. I do trail ride slso so what setting are good for that ? Thanks!

  • @JoshStenberg

    Did you all not have minimum ride height when racing?

  • @all_out_of_bubble_gum

    Could the Lone Star+3,5" Kit make lowering the ride?
