What size torsion bars are you guys running with 3x3 arms? I have 29mm ones and am starting to think they may be too stiff. I dont want it to ride like a tank, but I will probably be doing alot of jumping.
Im thinking about keeping my stock set for when I make trips up north to ride with you guys. Would those work or be too weak for the 3x3s?

I have 28mm in mine and they are perfect for me.

Im not sure about the weight. Im guessing its probably gonna end up weighing about the same as a regular baja. I think I added as much weight in tubing as all the metal that was removed so Im guessing around 2000 lbs :cry: If Roy is happy with the 28s then the extra weight ought to make my 29s pretty good
