Set up suspension with the EDS 181005 gauge

The EDS 181005 Chassis Droop Gauge lets enthusiasts measure suspension droop reliably on 1/8 and 1/10 scale cars. Its -3 to 10 mm range covers typical tuning windows used in club and local racing.

Effects of droop on vehicle balance

Adjusting droop changes how the car responds to weight shift and track irregularities. Using the gauge helps you tune for improved stability and more predictable corner exits.

Simple measurement workflow

Place the gauge under the arm and note the reading to compare left and right measurements or before and after changes. This quick method reduces time in the pits between test runs.

Suitable for mixed track use

The gauge is compatible with both 1/8 and 1/10 models, making it a practical tool whether you run buggies, truggies or touring cars.

Link length, shock mounting positions and spring rate are the main factors. Use the EDS 181005 to measure after each change to judge its impact.
Tyre choice can alter ride height slightly under load, but droop measured with the gauge focuses on suspension travel with the car on a level surface, so comparisons remain useful.
Keep it in a dry case or toolbox to avoid knocks and bending. A flat storage spot prevents the scale from warping and preserves accurate readings.
Yes. The gauge works regardless of track surface, but ensure the car is placed on a level bench to get consistent measurements.
