Afco shocks ?

[dirtslinger4]

Anybody have any suggestions. Car has been checked over and shocks dynoed but having traction problems. Does anyone know if this is a problem with afco silver series gas shocks. Dry track. Lf60psi rf40psi lr120psi rr 40psi. Thanks

Traction problem???? When and where? In or out? No the gas or off?

[dirtslinger4]

Yes lacking traction center off when dry, sorry

[jason29a]

Are you running a traction shock on the front of the lr birdcage?

[dirtslinger4]

Yes, I have a 6-0 gas afco

[jason29a]

And what are your weight percentages?

[Matt49]

How much gas pressure in the 6-0 shock in front of the LR?

[dirtslinger4]

percentages: 54.1 left and 54.7 rear
gas in control shock: 90psi

i think i would run the 90 psi in the LR behind shock and the 120psi in the LR traction shock. and you can go higher with them pressures but ive never been over 100psi on LR behind shock, and sometimes go up to 180 psi on traction shock

If you're running a high compression gas shock in front, disconnect before scaling. It will give false bite numbers.

[Matt49]

I was thinking the same thing: higher gas pressure in the LR shock in front

[grt74]

put your traction shock on a clamp bracket

What kind of car are you dealing with? Are those percentages with the driver in the car or without?

[dirtslinger4]

2006 rocket, I already disconnect when scaling and always scale with driver weight in seat

is this a blue or black car, we keep our rear percentages around 56- 56.5 on a black car
