While your at it check the bladders like was said previously. 80 imho weight is to high I feel 50or 60 would be better .

You go back (about page 7) and look at the whole layout, since you can't feel it, remember the motor is mounted on one side. It is nearly perfectly balanced.

Like I said previously the bladders are good.

Sorry I don't mean to be so quick I just really like the layout, I know its good.

Besides, once the truck is in motion, you should be landing it with the rear wheels first just like an airplane landing on the tarmac. Have you ever seen any airplane land on all fours at the same time? None. Any vertical drop will cause it to bottom out so but not so when you land properly. You need to practice landing your truck rear wheels first . I'm running blue/black (f/r) springs with 50wt oil all around on my emaxx. It bottoms out when dropped from about 6-8 inches off the ground but rarely bottoms outs when landing from a jump.

Looking at the upper mounting point on the shock, try mounting it on hole #7 (second hole from top on the center.

Okay I suck at jumping.

But I remember dropping my savage from 4 feet to bottom it when it was brand new RTR and still had an engine (now just sits waiting on money to convert.) Oh well...
