Re: Piranha double a front module
Heard back today on the first testing of this front end.
Troy says the turning radius is much tighter than his other 2 Piranhas.
He said that slow turns on pavment were similar to a small car and he didn't even feel any pushing. Ackerman? With 1 1/2 turns lock to lock steering is smooth and easy, not twitchy.
A big improvement over the XRV and escort racks that were in the other cars.
Suspension was a little soft, but he was only running 200psi in the shocks. The pressure was set with the cars weight on the shocks. So they were possibly only around 175psi. He's going to add a bit more this weekend and do it at full droop. He did place an order for another front module and wants me to look into modifying my racks to fit the Barracuda.
All in all he's happy with it and sees no issues so far.
I'm still waiting for the CD with pics of the transplant.
He'll be taking this buggy up to LS in Oct.
