The pitch, roll and droop can further be tuned/Adjusted with the threaded aluminum center shock, spring collars and side damper tubes. The two-piece rear pod allows quick axle height adjustment utilizing Factory Team carbon fiber shims. Fine-tune Ackermann on the fly with the adjustable servo mount.
