This may be a dumb question, but what do the long springs offer over the short springs on the rear of the 733?

Thanks!

the longer springs make the rear more stable and it doesnt bottom out as much.

Better Ride height adjustment and a more progressive feel.

blue springs

1 hole piston
spool (for now use the heaviest oil you can get)
Standard hex
2.2mm front sway bar. This is the one step softer than the stock
Roll center pins all the way up


Rear-

2.5 droop
6 ride height
short car
4 left camber
3.25 right camber
camber link is inside on tower all the way down and 2mm and inner on hub
40 shore - twister tires
2 toe

pink springs (I use long rear springs)
layed down
900wt
2 hole piston
150 diff oil ( I think anything from 100 to 150 will work good. 120 would be best I think)
Standard hex
softest sway bar setting
Roll center pins all the way down

Hi guys / DJ - quick question re shims on the rear camber link. When you say 2mm of shims does this mean the standard orange cone washer that comes with the kit or are you adding 2mm of shims in addition to this?

Many Thanks

I was able to open it. It is in PDF format. I tried to post here, but it is too big.

Sorry, maybe you could try again....

If you email me I could reply and send it in an email attachment.

Hi DJ, I remember that you use MRT transponders and wanted to ask if they fit to 733 without any problems. Thanks.

Not on the bottum, But I modified the 966 graphite transponder holder and use in the top by the servo. There are 2 screws and I put it there.

MRT transponder are thicker than the AMB transponder, it will not fit under the fuel tank like the AMB does, you have to shim the fuel tank at least 2mm higher in order for the MRT to fit or just mount it to the side of the receiver cover or you can fabricate a transponder mount and mount it on top of the steering servo mount which have 2 holes ready for a transponder mount.
