9.4 Chassis Setup

The rear suspension

must

be neutralized with driver to promote straight vehicle

tracking. It is highly recommended that a full baseline chassis setup is performed before
running your Cobra Jet. Additionally, there are many adjustments that can be made to
the chassis to optimize performance under varying track conditions.

9.4.1 Neutralizing Rear Suspension

Neutralizing the rear suspension involves adjusting the lengths of the rear passenger
side upper control arm and the anti-roll bar drop link.

•

The passenger side control arm will be made slightly shorter than the neutralized
position

•

The passenger side anti-roll bar drop link will be made slightly longer than the
neutralized position

ATTENTION!

It is necessary to properly set up your Cobra Jet chassis prior to
making any runs. Failure to do so may result in loss of control of

your vehicle, potentially causing serious damage as well as injury or

death.
