A sway bar loosely couples the suspension on both sides of the vehicle to help reduce body roll and can be "tuned" by using stiffer bar stock. You don't want it too tightly coupled or when one side articulates over a small bump, the other side will too.

You can see it working by picking up a car (so it's off the tires) with a sway bar setup. Push up on one of the wheels. Once you get to a certain point, the sway bar will cause the other side to raise as well, just not as much.

And i have noticed that in my lsp i prefer running rear sway bars only, the front sway bars are not the greatest since it give the truck this weird feeling.

The Mamba Max as many others will say as well, will be great in your t4 mainly because it is so programable. As for lipo, I am also still learning about these kinds of batteries, but the Max Amps 2s or 3s 4000 packs seem to be doing well for many people.

Im running 2s2p 8000mah maxamps lipo in my B4.

how does the s in 2s mean cell except its not spelled cell but its spelled "sell"?
And much runtime you get off that 8k in ya b4 for alot of full throttlin?

[glassdoctor]

"2s2p"
the s means series
the p means parallel

It describes how the pack is constructed... what the voltage is, how many total cells are in it, etc.

ohh alright thanks lol i thought it always meant cell.
Do most people run setup sheets or do they just run what they think is good for the track?Because I asked a guy if he used a setup sheet and he said he uses his own tweaks and stuff.( This guy being one of the better guys at the track)

could I safely run a 7.4v or 2s lipo with a novak 5.5 gtb combo?

[Sylvester]

No problems on running 2s in the GTB..

look here for setups:

http://www.rc10.com/racerhub/setup/0...oad.htm#RC10T4

try to find one where the surface and lay-out match the track you'll be racing on.

also try to match the power-output somewhat if you know what i mean by that.
