I had the poly/poly end UMI lca's. Now I have the poyl/roto joint ends. The 555's and the new lca's's made a big difference. The car feels heavier in the corners.

 

FYI, even having poly on one end of the lca's will limit articulation(been there, done that). I'd recommend going with the roto-joints on both ends, you'll have more predictable handling at your limit of your tires. Have you tried any different shock settings, do you have your watts-link dialed-in?

 

The shocks are new. I want to run them for a while before I make any adjustments. I rechecked the Watts and the tube mounts haven't moved and is still parallel.

 

So are you saying that your shocks are still set to full soft...? The front's really need to be turned up at least 1/2 way with the 550 lb.in. spring rate, full soft(or close) on the rear is fine .

 

I initially set the fronts to 4 and rear at 3

 

Are you still testing on the street? I don't know how you can give the car an accurate assessment without taking it on some kind of course

 

The back roads is where I go to trial and error. Next week is the autoX. I will see how it goes.

 

I'm going for some 18" wheels and tires. I will keep the 17's I have now for future comparison.
