I doubt they're selling to "upgrade". The changes are basically just the inclusion of some parts that were previously options and some updated suspension parts like springs and such. Nothing really 'new' as most people that previously had 74.2's were likely already running the updates.

I'm just speculating, but that's probably why they elected to call it the 74.2CE vs. 74.3 or 84...

My B74.2d comes in at 1420 grams without wheels. That's with titanium screws, MOD center pucks, and an LCG pack. A set of my decently broken in slicks comes in at 248 grams

Picked up my CE (carpet) on Tuesday and slowly working through the build. The carpet kit comes with the steel ring and pinions, and only comes with the decoupled slipper. No center diff is included in the kit.

Are the 4.75x8mm Titanium Ball Studs the correct size for the car? I know the length varies the 4.75 is what I’m wondering about.

Does anyone have weights for the diff's with ltc gears + the molded ring and pinion? I would assume this has been updated in the CE kit build but the download on Ae's site brings up the b74.1 instructions.

I’ve been looking through the recent setup sheets that have been posted for high grip dirt tracks. One thing I’ve noticed is that they are placing 1mm shims under the C and D block. Does anyone have a picture of what this might look like?

Lumikko

It’s just what it sounds like: 1 mm shims between the chassis plate and those blocks to raise the hinge pins. It raises the roll center quite a bit which may be necessary when running low ride heights.

Its more of a mod thing, more or less. It supports the rear end more, and I typically do run it most of the time as I do usually run mod. I've talked to MattyG about it and it slows down the stock cars a bit for whatever reason (roll center moves more or less or is too high/low, I haven't plotted the difference out to see what the effect actually is). Matty G says the Raymond twins he helps out have tried it and went away from it due to the slightly slower lap times.

But I've also ran it in stock, but that was more so because all I had time for was the motor swap, then later I took it off for a qualifier. It seemed to pickup some pace but with my lack of track time on that layout it could be me just learning the layout. But it was a very small dirt track I was on. I think the washer support the rear end more, but slow the movement down at the same time. So for mod you can just give it more power, while in stock not so much. If MattyG told me its slower in stock- Id believe him.
