I’m running deans 3x3’s with 930cv’s and I think I can get more travel from my race prepped 930's. I have them set to 25 degrees but not sure where you’re supposed to check the angle. When I originally installed the 930’s I just leveled the torsion to 0 degrees then I put the angle finder on the axles and set them to 25 degrees full extension. Is there a better way to set the max travel out of the cv’s to get the most wheel travel?

Thanks, Brad

Jack the thing way off the ground and take the limit straps and shocks off. Lower each wheel untill the axle just stops moving in and out. raise the wheel up one inch and set the limit straps there.

this is how i did it except i lowered the arm to the binding point of the cv's then raised it one inch. i'm not sure if that's the same point as when the axle stops moving in and out.
