Well, he busted another rear shock tower yesterday. This is three for three now. His suspension is quite a bit stiffer than anything I ever ran on my Emaxx's, but I didnt do any jumping like we are now. Between this and the issue with his HV system, he's feeling quite frustrated at the moment, especially since the economy is hitting his business quite hard, and he doesnt have the funds to keep up with me (kinda makes me feel somewhat responsible).
I think I made the mistake of actually reducing his spring rate while we were doing the FLM conversion. Right now he is considering going to aluminum shock tower and bulks. I'm somewhat hesitant to have him invest that kind of money into the truck, since we havent really figured out the cause yet. I'd almost rather see him take that money and use it on a truggy conversion.
