    Chain the RR

    Looking for opinion on the best way to set the rr chain on a 2012 Grt. Ive never chain the rr what are some benefits of doing it. Thanks in advance

    In our 2016 Grt we start an inch above ride height. As the track gets slicker we shorten it. This will tighten up exit quite a bit. Seems to keep more drive in the car as well.

        Thanks for the info rhat helps. Do you guys run more of 50/50 shock or easy up on the Left front. I usually run like a 9-2 but been thinking about trying a 5-4 or 5-5 i here it works well but never tried that. Thanks again for the info

          Left front we usually stay with a 5-4. A 9-2 on the left front would be awful radical in my opinion. Left rear it would be fine.

            What is the theory behind chaining the RR and then shortening when it dries out? Does the RR really lift the chassis that much? Keepittacky what brand shock do you run the 5-4 valving? Not all shocks are built equally....

              It is fairly common to lift the RR off the spring.

                rr chain adds tons of drive middle off when tight at ride height, but only works on smooth as glass tracks. if there are any bumps your tire loads and unloads as it hits the chain and that is BAD..
