Went to the badlands today to see how the new 3link works. Found that I need more up travel on the rear shocks and bumpstops other than that it seemed to do well . Spent most of our time with the kids and their new go-cart here's a few pics

Not as well as I thought it would but the way the shocks are mounted the coils aren't hardly compressing . The shock is bottoming out way to soon the coil has about 3inches of compression left .

Hey Spiny what coils are you running? I run 150 and they flex real well with my 3 link.

They're tj coils may need to look into a differant coil. Do you capture the spring top and bottom and do you completely compress it when the wheels stuffed ?

I have mine mounted to the frame and housing with no stops. Been like that for 2 years with no problems.
