Hyper Racing's exclusive Jacob's Jacker® is a system that allows the remote adjustment of the Jacob Ladder's (W-link) roll center while you are in the cockpit on the racetrack. This system was developed and designed by Mike Dicely and is only available through Hyper Racing and our dealers.

This unique adjuster moves the rod end that the Jacob's ladder bolts to up 1/2" or down 3/4" from center. That is 1-1/4" of adjustment!

We have tested this unit on the track and adjustments can be made very easily under yellow at any time, or under green while racing down the straight.

The system is designed to use a CSI shock cable, but other companies cables may be used by using an adapter pin. Cable is not included.

Being able to adjust the roll center while on the racetrack will help solve the biggest problem of dirt track racing, the ever-changing track conditions. The rear roll center height controls how much weight is transferred to the right rear during a corner. It doesn't change how much total weight is transferred, just where it transfers to. By lowering the rear roll center, more weight will transfer to the right front (from the left front) and less to the right rear (off the left rear). This keeps more weight on the left rear resulting in more equally loaded rear tires creating more rear traction. If this explanation of how to achieve more rear traction sounds interesting to you, please read Mike Dicely's Rethink Dirt Paper.

Grease bearings before the first use with Champion Grease 74-332, or 77-805 Daylube Nanoceramic Racing Grease.

Use a 1/2" rod end or 1/2-20 Clevis for the Jacob's ladder pick up. 4-1/2" spread.

These bearing carriers are compatible with many other chassis on the market.
