So on low bite tracks you want the narrow 5mm hex on back, and the shorter arm and bone to increase side bite . You also shim the driveshafts so the wheel nut doesn't bottom out .I tried the clicker on carpet and dirt and it sucked. Throw the clicker in the trash and go with the aluminum pulley with pin. The slipper I run the nut about 1mm from flush .

Does anyone happen to know where to find a spring rate chart for Yokomo springs? The chart on the petit site doesn't have the rates of the springs I have for my buggy. For instance the rate for these :

And also the rates for the matching fronts and so on.
Thank you in advance for any help.

I run L5 front a arms with S4 rear a arms. Exotek 24 gram front rear hanger alum rear rear hanger Rear inserts center up with front inserts arrow up. No antisquat on low bit diet with higher roll center. The new aluminum rear hubs with 66.5mm CVDs work excelkent with either 5mm or 6mm rear wheel hexes. Saddles centerline or brick pack have worked great on low to med bite dirt and clay tracks.

Plus 1 on Carpetburner's response. You can run L5 rear arms with non L5 rear hangers. I run L5 front a arms and have 1 shim between the axle and inner hub bearing. Seen some running L5 rears with standard hangers and front wheel hexes as wheel as using 5mm and 6mm hexes. The aluminum tear hangers are great as the inserts allow you to really tune toe in, antisquat and track width.

If you have movement in your front hangers inserts put shims between the insert and front hinge pin brace. .7mm to 1mm does the trick. I would suggest going to BRC on shapeways and purchase his front skid/bumper as it is more robust and is secured via 4 screws. Run a dab of grease/thick diff fluid around the hangers opening to the gear diff thus when you secure your front skid/bumper it will be debri proof.

Oh! The L5 front a arms have worked perfa on low bite dirt and clay. The wider stance is great and again the L5 front a arms are superior in strength.

Just installed the rear narrow belt kit and noticed the layshaft moves from side to side a little bit so does anyone know if this is normal or do i need to shim it up?
