By my calculations, you need the 1mm spacer on the block to get the standard position.

Camber link mount on 3-4 caster blocks
sosidge, newracer;
Thanks guys,
I still havent broken anything on my car yet. That's after 6 months of racing ALMOST every weekend.
I would like to run with the 2 deg kick-up and still have 5-6 degs of total caster, so the 3-4 deg blocks sound just right. Any advantages/Disadv. to using the Graphite blocks instead of the plastic ones.
Thanks again,

Even the the Cross spur gear adapter is easy to use..it is also twice as heavy as the HPI spur gear adapter. Which will slow down your acceleration slightly.

HPI spur gear adapter

Put a Allen wrench in the hole on the nut and crank that sucker down tight. NEVER not once had mine come loose. Use the biggest allen that will fit in the hole so you don't bend it when tightening/loosening.

I like my roll centers as they are now and would like to duplicate the position if I go to the 3 & 4 deg caster blocks.
