Look at the car on the table (Schumacher) and CS is one of the lines they distribute so my guess would be contacting them.

Thanks for the advice.i previously looked on schumachers website under the cs electronic section. but they didnt have it advertised so that got me thinking they won,t advertise it because you,ll need a wheel barrow full of cash or possibly a second mortgage to pay for it!!
although it really looks the business.

Schumacher England has some of the items that the USA store doesn't carry.

I haven't heard anyone mention the tweak station in the Hudy All in One, whats wrong with it? Other than the fact you have to put your gauges on your car to use it, its a finely machined piece of aluminum in my opinion.

I was looking at the Hudy all in one, anyone using this and what is your opinion on this compared to the unity. Now I would only be using this for a 1/10 pan car.

If you are ONLY using one for 1/10 Pan cars you will only need one of the $30 to $40 ones from MIP or Speedmind.

I've used a bunch of tweak stations over the years and mine usually stays packed away in the box. For sedans, they're a must have for most but not all that important for me in 12th.

The single most important part about tweaking a 12th is getting the front end the same on both sides. Check the axle heights with a droop gage and take a quick look at the springs. Uneven axle height or a collapsed spring will screw up the car on the track no matter how you tweak it.

More often than not, the springs won't be the same after a couple of runs. Just shim the shorter spring so that it has the same preload and it'll be fine. New springs will change and take a set so pay more attention when they're new.

Ok so we all agree that Unity Tweak is good, now do I still need droop and hight gauges?
