It was a little violent on front corner landing. Fox 3.0, Rpg uca, rogue tie rods, deavers, SVC bump stop kit ( got full compression on one side and only half on other...screwed landing. Caught me off guard on like a bunny hop before jump at top of hill and I had a slight turn going on.

if you're going to make a habit out of doing that, you need a metric ton more rebound and more compression. you dont have a rebound adjustment, so it may be worth looking into a revalve.


especially if you like being the height that you currently stand at. Too much more of that and you'll compress your spine.

Totally agree and feel that! Just got tired of throwing money into this thing!and not sold on it’s reliability yet. Have 33k on it and have had that cam phaser problem and need to take it in. Waiting to hear their hassle with the mods. They gave me quite a bit of crap when the front diff scattered. And then 2 sets of hubs and he told me they weren’t sure they would repair again.

the second that I changed something, just like with my gt350s, I came to the conclusion that I'd be fixing anything I broke on my own.

I'm at 27K with more than half of that in the dirt. I wouldn't take a jump like that in my truck with a flat landing on the backside, especially not with suspension seats.

Yep, been waiting on taking it in for that - expecting the fun to start. Buddy that was in our camp at pismo just got his bought back from the "lemon law".
