r/redcat
How do I fix this problem?
This is the Redcat Ascent 18 Scout ii. I just changed out it's shocks yesterday to the INJORA 59mm Long Threaded Oil Shocks with 25wt oil and it's having extremely poor rebound. When I turn my RC while driving, it leans and then stay leaned.
It does this with and without all the acessories on the car.
Things that I have already done to troubleshoot:
- removed all the oil and refilled it + bleed out all the air
- tried new
softer and stiffer springs
- ran it without oil (still does the same thing without oil in the shocks)
- adjusted the preload to all types of heights
- ran it without all the top heavy acessories
- oiled the O-rings
- loosened the cap where the O-ring is
Any help or advice or criticism is appreciated. I'm desperate, please help!!

Negative offset on portals
So I can't seem to find a 1.9 zero offset beadlock wheel. The wheels that came with my ascent fusion have a zero or slight positive offset. I put some 10mm offset wheels on it, but it just seems like I'm going to get caught on the knuckles and portals now. Can anyone convince me one way or another on which I should go with. I know the negative offset will give me more stability, but the truck seemed to do just fine without them.
