Thanks bro. It might show in stock now but we were waiting for springs and a few other items for a while so we either ordered from over seas or made other items work.

thanks!

So I checked into the rear toe in problem. Talking with a few people at HB USA they were saying that they were told that HPI/HB Japan has addressed the problem, and the new corrected hub carriers should be within full circulation across the world within a month or two.

Probably not exactly what you guys wanted to hear with it possibly being a while, but at least they know about the problem and are fixing it!

For right now just look at the hubs. If the drill path is all cattywhompus then look for another set. Clint had a great solution, and the 3 Racing hub Carriers are also a good alternative.

you know the FBI is looking for me......no real names.. The 3 racing would be the best choice if you don't want to modify the rear arms and wish to run your camber links at the exact same as the stock hubs.
