ADVANCED TUNING ADJUSTMENTS
SWAY BAR SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS
• Adjust the sway bar links so the sway bars are level (parallel to the
ground) when the truck is on the ground and the suspension is at
rest (normal ride height). This allows equal sway bar travel in both
unloaded and loaded suspension conditions. Always adjust the
left and right sway bar links equally to prevent suspension tweak.
• The adjustable hollow balls can be
moved closer to or farther from
the sway bar mount (pivot point)
to increase torsion response and
fine tune the sway bar’s response
for different track conditions.
Closer to the pivot point results
in a stiffer setup, farther from the
pivot point will result in softer sway bar response.
For smooth surfaces with high traction:
• Adjust linkage placement for stiffer response
(closer to the sway bar mount).
For rough surfaces with low traction:
• Adjust linkage placement for softer response
(farther from the sway bar mount).
To reduce understeer (pushing in corners):
• Adjust front linkage placement for softer response
(farther from the sway bar mount).
• Adjust rear linkage placement for stiffer response
(closer to the sway bar mount).
To reduce oversteer (loose in corners):
• Adjust front linkage placement for stiffer response
(closer to the sway bar mount).
• Adjust rear linkage placement for softer response
(farther from the sway bar mount).
