Lower Shock Mounting Positions
In the out-of-the-box configuration, the shocks are installed in position (A)
on the shock tower and position (2) on the lower suspension arm. This
setting allows for firm suspension and low ride height, increasing the spring
force (at the wheel). This setting improves high-speed cornering on
smoother terrain by lowering the center of gravity. Body roll, brake dive,
and squat are also reduced.
The inner pair of holes on the lower suspension arm should
be used to increase the ride height of the T-Maxx 2.5R. The more vertical
position of the shocks will allow for lower shock progression and the soft,
plush feel that’s characteristic of a Traxxas Maxx Truck.
Spring rate
(at the wheel) increases as the lower shock mounting position
is moved from position (1) to position (4). This is equivalent to using stiffer
springs. Use higher spring rate settings for flatter terrain with smaller and
fewer bumps, and lower spring rate settings for bigger bumps.
Ride height
decreases as the lower shock mounting position is moved
from position (1) to position (4). Each pair of lower shock mounting holes
(1,2 and 3,4) has equal ride height. Use lower ride height for high-speed
cornering and flat terrain, and when racing on relatively smooth tracks.
Increase the ride height for rougher terrain and tracks.
Upper Shock Mounting Positions
The upper shock mounting positions will have suspension effects opposite
from the lower shock mounting positions.
Spring rate
(at the wheel), increases as the upper shock mounting position
is moved from position (A) to position (B).
Ride height
is not affected by changes in the upper shock mounting
position.
Use the chart below to see the effect of the various shock mounting
positions. The horizontal length of the lines indicates the amount of
suspension travel. The angle or slope of the lines indicates the spring rate
(at the wheel
).
