I have a bee line single seater with custom torsion in it with adjusters. I have been to a few hill climbs and watching all the buggies that do well squat in the rear. I cant get mine to squat but about 2 inches I put 27 mm
torsion bars in it and have thought about changing to stock. I was just hoping for any thoughts on what to do because i dont think the buggy is climbing like it should. thanks for the input

I use to run 27mm in my 2 seater and it was way to stiff even for the heavy 2 seater. I would go back to stock or 25mm.

Stock is best. Set the torsion to where it sits up pretty good, but is still pretty squishy when you push on it. It may take 10 times of re-setting it, but it will work. Good luck!
