perhaps someone can help me out . I got one of those low ratio pulley sets and i'm kind of lost (not uncommon with me) . On the Lay shaft do i keep the one way gear or do i replace it. The kit comes with 2 18 tooth gears , do both go on the lay shaft???? if so how or can you point me in the right direction!!!! THANKS A BUNCH, ALBERTO......

you can not use the one way shaft with the 1.77 gears, you need a solid alum layshaft. and yes both 18 gears go on the layshaft

When checking droop you disconnect the shocks correct? yes-its more accurate

NOw onto the second question-theres no reason to shim-up the ballstuds unless you have a reason to or someone gives you a set-up for a particuar track that calls for it.

I dont know what shimming-up the ballstud on the caster block does (I havent tried it yet), but in back it frees up the rear end of the car for more corner speed. Of course-you do it if your car feels in NASCAR terms "tight".

It could be the trick you need-or your car might just get loose.
