    X2 I believe. Then toy'd with maybe center mount and then went beams.

    Couple years age at BAP with him, Vance and Kevin McMurry was one of the best races I have seen. I think Unsiker was in the mix too

    How much usable travel do his beams put out? Just curious. If it was "better" when he was running Camburg, why did he go to beams?

    He is getting more travel with beams. But it's also not as clean of travel (camber change, ect..) His truck works awesome with both because he has spent time getting the shocks dialed in.

    Ok so pardon the question but I'm a total noob when it comes to bypasses :) so I got me some bitchen king 18" dbls w/12comp 8re 1st gen dbl cab 4x with 2spares.... What is a good starter point as for just the tubes? Thought I was told rebound all the way open, sound right? Then for compression i got no clue.

    [​IMG]

    My fronts are valved at 15comp and 12re w/600lb coils and feel to soft. Gonna be a bit before I can slap some front bypasses in so what what be a good valving to step to to help so I can romp harder :)


    I know without seeing video or good explanation of what it's actually doing it's hard to say what is best. I figured there are some on here that have similar setups and have their valving pretty dialed. Any help or comments are appreciated :thumbsup: even the asshole ones :D

    ...too much shit to list.
    For rears, rebound all the way open. For compression, I like to start with tube half way and test and adjust half way again one direction or another. Repeat until I'm happy.

    For front with no bypasses, I'd suggest a revalve to 20 comp with a 10 or 12 flutter and 20 on rebound

    :thumbsup: and Jason steps up again with the knowledge! Thanks brotha!

    Forgot to mention ( if it matters ) both rear n fronts do have a flutter of 20. The rear is based off what u r running Jason. The front was off dsm's suggestion.
