+prancstaman they got it figured out for sure

+BustedKnuckleVideo Meants could and did out drive Anderson almost every time but never got the credit!! I Quit watching.

He got another Vegas win a year or 2 ago, seven total I think for racing. He was so focused he would shoo away the cameras while he was sitting in his truck. When he won, he rubbed it in, that everybody got beat by a 10 year old truck. It was Great!! Not only did he beat Anderson, He sure as hell beat Unbeatable Linsey too.

+MaRoder Dave Thats one hell of a match up. I haven't seen enough of meants driving to say who is better. But you gotta give it to Dennis for always pushing the limits

Dennis and Tom is legendary on the track and freestyle against each other, always trying to beat each other. Best thing about them both, between rounds when working on the trucks, if one truck really needs help getting back on the track, the other crew would help out getting the work done. They both with their crews helped each other out in the pits, when they drove out onto the track, they both did everything possible to keep their trucks together even if it meant helping the other guy. The attitude was, "If they was going to be beat by the other guy, it was because the other guy out drove him, not because the truck was broken". And when the light turned green, it was war!!, LOL.

+AnthonyAllMotor Jake Knows his stuff for sure!

it helps

you did what?

adjust a sway bar? You either have to drill new holes in the arm or put the sway bar in a lathe and take material off

+jt4x46366 Thanks for watching.

+MaRoder Dave yeah they dont do as well on the front usually. Now he just needs more motor

good topic

works well

+LFTD offroad thanks for watching

They are very important

For slow crawling no, but anything with speed yes

holes just give the bar more leverage as it gets closer to the bar

+Philip Oliva thats a great topic. Ill put it on the list!

pretty much.

All of our new builds have the sway bars that go down to the trailing arms aka lower links

@@BustedKnuckleVideo could you post a pic or video? What sway bar kit do you guys recommend?

We run a special Antirock one on our rigs. Hit us up and we can get you setup with the right one www.bustedknuckleoffroad.com

It needs all kinds of work

+RedWhiteandFU Daddy depends on how much preload you are after.

+RedWhiteandFU Daddy Its my understanding a lot of people are running 2-3 inches of preload to help with rebound in the last few inches of down travel. running zero preload or close to it you are allowing gravity only, to get the shock to the bottom of its travel add to that rebound dampening and the last 2 inches of travel will slow up a lot. this is where the 2-3 inches of preload comes to play, forcing the last few inches to extend a little quicker. you can also setup your secondary stop to help with body roll as well...I'm sure these fellas have done the work and know what they need

+BustedKnuckleVideo any more you get into coil bind limiting full travel on compression. unless you guys run springs made for longer travel than your using. I've gone to suspension courses by Fox, Marzocchi, Elka, to name a few. Springs are super critical to shock performance as you know. I used to use my own coil spring rate tester to test the actual rates of coil springs and use matched sets which cost huge investments to assemble the correct number of varying rates and sell the ones i didn't use. They're never ever what the rate printed on them say, usually they are +or- 20 to 50 pounds either way. Just because you use 2 turns of preload on each rear shock doesn't mean they're the same preload because you haven't found each true rate.

+longzook preload is ONLY used for sag. nothing else. If you only have two circuits per shock (R and C) you find the correct rate spring you need for weight of vehicle and desired sag. Then set PL to acheive sa Then you set V first by starting at full hard and back off until you like it click by click. Then set R same way. There is no other way to do this properly. If you have High and Low speed circuits for C and R ( HSC, LSC and HSR and LSR) then it's a little different.

+BustedKnuckleVideo of you need more than two turns you need a stiffer coil. Like I said, unless you're running a coil length for a longer stroke damper. Which could damage your damper on C and R by over extending or bottoming out harshly. You run limiters though I assume.

Removing a sway bar for fast stuff is a bad idea

+Boris Morris thanks!

independent of the sway bar?

Busted Knuckle Films like with the sway bar the rod is fixed so does it just flex

+Andrew Weston Thanks for watching. packaging a sway bar on the rear is easier for us. Also we want the front to take a hit and do what it needs to do while the rear stays planted. This helps on hills

+BustedKnuckleVideo +1 for Jake on this answer

I don't run sway bars on my RZR at all and it does great. It all depends on setup and what you want to do.

thats right

You want us to replace good working coilovers with churched up air shocks? Do you see trophy trucks or RZRs running ORIs?

Busted Knuckle Films yup it’s the future ...just like coil overs where over mono shocks and leaf springs. I’m sure back in the day they said the same thing .... with the expanded reservoirs it is a way more versatile system . I’ve seen them change recoil rates on the fly with a remote controlling the rebound on both strokes.....you’d have to spend hours at a pit to change or adjust your spring rates.....like I said get with the times or fall behind

They are not match for a set of coilovers and bypasses and likely never will be.

Busted Knuckle Films I’m seeing more and more crawlers and bouncers with them.

glad to help

+bjonesmoto2424 Most rock bouncers don't use them.
