What front hole?
Please note that AM26 are used only for rear suspension in these setups and the holes for front top links are available on FFG.

right, getting my awesomatix in a few days and, i kinda get how the springs work, and how the dampening works, but there is one thing i would like to know

what the equivalent on standing the shocks or laying them down is with the suspension.

although, i can drive fairly well, car setup is still something i struggle at, usually i get a car, throw on the default setup, and 99% of the time, it works incredibly well, then i make a few adjustments to it, depending on what i need the car to do

I assume you are talking about moving the upper point of the shock: Standing them up makes them stiffer, laying down is softer. I suppose you could say the equivalent is adjusting the spring gap stiffer or softer by 0.2mm.

I would suggest you use Karl's Halloween classic setup as a base, it is very easy to drive and can be built with the parts in the box. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0Z...lESXdiNFk/edit

Hi Dustin,

FJ, Gee, Cyrul and Co. can get you squared away with the new car. They have all of the insight you need for the EVO.

I cant part with my cars. Too much invested and I still get some enjoyment from spinning the drivetrain.

Whats up oceanhighz and Ova!
