what mounting holes are you guys runnin on your RPM arms? I've mine mounted using the outer holes right now, but I'm thinking of moving them to the middle and just wanted some opinions as to what others are doing.

I am in the outer holes too... I have the truck pulled apart right now and will probably go in the center to lower the truck a little too.

When not sure which way to go, stick to the middle! Never fails.

so here is the real question, will moving them in or out lower the truck? i would think out, but i'm not absolutly sure.

Moving them out lowers the truck. I have mine all the way out too, moving them in will increase the height and travel, but also it'll increase body roll, which makes the truck less stable at higher speeds.

I run mine on the outer holes.

Outer holes for high-speed runs and racing. If your gonna be bashing (driving over trees and stuff) then go to the inner holes.

What changing the shock angle really does is change how progressive the shock is, when its more laid down it will feel stiffer as you compress it farther. And the opposite is true for standing it up more. You can also use the shock angle to get more steering or more rear bite, more stood up generally equals more traction. If you want to lower the truck put travel limiters inside the shocks.

I'm not gonna do a lot of bashing, mostly just light offroad, grass, dirt, maybe some mud, if it gets too stuck. i'll move it up.

Placing the shocks verticle gives more foward traction, laying it more horizontal gives you more side traction. For racing you need to side bite laying them flat will provide, for traction you use your throtle finger.
