It sure would be nice to see a few parade laps with all the MTEG trucks when RG series starts.

That sure is an awesome truck. Are the triple torsion bars on the front set up to increase the sping rate as it moves through the travel? Or is it to enable the amount of travel that they were running? Looks like your progressing well with the build.

The lower arm triple rate bars use the set screws to change the rate of the bars as it moves through the travel. As the torsion bars twist and the adjuster stops make contact to the frame each bars rate is eliminated.



The farthest adjuster from the arms sets ride height, then secondary rate and third rate adjusters can be set. The truck also has the top arm torsion bar that can be set to kick in at any time. Pretty extreme rate changes through the travel range with all these bars..

Thanks for the info RACEHACKER. How are you progressing with the build? I remember years ago my brother in law imported the walker evans trucks to Australia. They were the coolest thing i had seen. Mind you i was only around 10 at the time.
