Suspension setup questions

[broncosbybart]

As an aside, does anyone care to share their spring rates (if known) compared to their corner weights (if known)? just want to be sure i'm in the ball park. Based on the ride, the fronts are close. Don't know about the rears yet- replacing them with new ones now.

Finished 2nd at the race this weekend. New setup is awesome! Running 2.5" 3 tube bypasses on the front and 2.5" remote resi shocks on the rear. We have 10" of travel in the front and 12" in the rear now. Probably not the numbers you guys are getting, but it worked well. Bottomed the front a few times. Anyone think air bumps might help over poly bumpstops?

I don't think your gonna find many of the straight axles getting much more than 11 or 12 on the front end. Your probably getting pretty close.

Air bumps will definitly help out with bottoming out, but sometimes they are hard to find a spot to mount them. If you've got a bypass up front , try putting another turn on the long compression tube (although there are better shock guys on here for that advise).

Congrats on the 2nd

Yeah, air bumps would be pretty tough to mount. I'd probably have to mount them in the frame. (a lot of work). Been thinking of the shock valving and firming them up some but don't want to go overboard and overheat them.
