That is some pretty old material there. I am sure they are looking into the bulkhead issue again. I never broke one after the old steel front brace and the new hinge pins. Not sure why the issue came up again. I have not had an issue with my 22-4 however still running 13.5 class with mine.

Sorry if this has been answered, but I couldn't find anything...
When reversing the rear a-arms to mount the shocks in the front, do I have to install the (2) 2mm shims that space out the hub in reverse as well?
Stock set up is (2) 2mm shims behind the hub and (2) 1mm shims in front of the hub. Do I install the (2) 2mm shims in front of the hub?
Thanks

Decided to upgrade from my 1.0, local track installed astroturf and season starts in Nov.
What upgrades would you suggest I put on to trick it out for astro as best as possible? I already have the sway bar kit from the 1.0. Is there a good setup out there somewhere? Petit RC's site is down.
Thanks!

With respect to running the rear shocks on the front side of the arm, there are clearance issues I've found with the turnbuckle rubbing the shock spring, so I run 4mm front and 1mm back hub spacing. I also installed a set of AE angled ball cups on the inside camber link. You'll need to drill out the AE ball cups with a 1/8 bit to allow the thicker 3.5mm TLR turnbuckle to thread into the AE cup. I also added two 1mm of spacers to the shock tower mount to try and stand the shock up straighter. JR Mitch did this for a race back in early September, if you google him he has a blog and photos.

Has anyone tried running the shorter rear driveshaft that dakotah and maifield were running at nationals (with the 22-4 hubs and +1.5 hexes)? If so, what changes did that make to how the car drove?

I run my car with a 13.5 and love it. Casper made a comment to my buddy [on the drivers stand] @ a JBRL about how good the 22-4 2.0 is and how my buddy should get one. Unfortunately, my friend is Sponsored by Kyosho and could only share that recommendation with me. I'm glad he did. Although my friend and his ZX6 ended up #1 in the JBRL series this year he loves the 22-4 2.0....he just can't run one. I have not had a single issue yet with mine after 3 weeks of racing. I'm not super fast or aggressive but I do crash like everybody else and, knock on wood, nothing has broken. I don't have any upgrades installed on the car yet. Just like Frank root has said numerous times the book set up is excellent. We're working on a second car now for our winter wet series in a month. We'll see how the 22-4 2.0 does where my XRay use to excel. So far the TLR has not disappointed.
