Your setup adapters look almost like mine . The only problem with yours is there's nothing to square them up to the axle. If they are twisted just a little it can be as much as 2 degrees at the gauge. Mine have a small ridge that you push it back against the face of the hub . The screw hole is also slotted so you just loosen the screw and slide them in place.

Gauges
I don't know what they would cost I trade my stripper pole and stage for them.

Tidbit from ETS. I didn't notice anything that felt remotely like torque steer in my limited time withe car (13.5). I'm curious to see what they're doing to try and counteract it.
Ooh, floating front spool?
With new parts arriving for the A700 last night with the car’s designer Oleg Babich, which help prevent torque steer on the all shaft drive chassis, Sudhoff said the car is getting better and better as they find what is the best combination of using the new parts with regular parts on the car.
...
He is really happy with the new parts they have on the car. Now with a floating front spool, that prevents torque steer, he said on power steering particularly through left hand corners due to the position of the motor is much better now.

From what I understand its mostly in mod, and with the flexier chassis they have been testing. Floating front spool sounds interesting though

Hi guys,
Yes, we are currently testing one of Oleg's awesome ideas! On some Tracks and specially on thin Chassis down to 2.1mm we have in modified the "problem" that we must be very smooth out of the corner because the torque from a mod Motor twist the Chassis. Same happens after heavy braking into corners.
The new parts let the front Spool and gears more possible movement. Its like a Floating bulkhead. So if we accelerate and brake, the bulkhead which included the spool can work and move without bending the Chassis.
Its Hard to describe but we dont want to Release any pictures during this first Stage testing.
But the Car felt completely different and Rolls a lot more!
I hope that some stock guys will test tomorrow the New Parts just to see if there is any difference in stock as well.
Regards
Freddy
