Maybe you just have.

rcracer37

sweet I guess we should talk about set ups and maybe show pictures of our gt's.

Ybakoff

Sounds like the plan. I'll have to take some pics when I get a chance. I'll post them later on this arvo.

rcracer37

I will try to post some pictuers to when I figure out how to work my new camera.

Has anybody put t4 parts on their gt yet.

I just bought a "team built" gt last night. what are the first "factory team " hop ups i should get?
thanks

My gt runs awesome with all stock parts (factory team) of course.

I would buy springs and maybe replacement parts I have not broken anything on it at all.

Not real sure what the difference is between the two, but if you brake something maybe replace that first.

If you are shooting for durability, try and get RPM replacement parts. They last forever. I wouldn't buy aluminum arms or stuff like that since they are heavier and if you bend one of them, it can be a pain to know for sure what is wrong with your vehicle. Better to just break a part and replace it.

one thing to consider is when they will come out with a new GT that uses T4 parts. I have seen online people have converted there GTs to use T4 suspension setup. They say it handles much better than the current GT.

Ya t4 parts like the arms will widen the front and make it more stable I am currently putting t4 parts on my gt.

Do they fit straight on. Might have to try a set on mine. A wider front track also gives better steering. Shouldn't push as much. Post some pics when you are done.

I haven't had a chance to take any pics of mine yet but I'll get some today.

rcracer37

ok sounds good. I got the idea from a freind who did it to his and his truck handles awesome.

To widen the front you use the stock front a arms and then use the B4 caster blocks, steering blocks, and the in line T4 front axles. You will need to drill the front caster blocks to accept the hinge pin running thru the A arm. You will use B4 pins to run thru the axle.

This will widen your fron to almost right on the ROAR limit. In the rear use B4 CVD axle and axle spacer with your stock MIP cvd bone and this will widen the rear 1/16th of an inch on each side.

You can also just use the Losi XXX front axle in the stock GT steering block and taht widens the front end alot as well. Need to mill the axle down just a very little bit to make it fit into the GT steering hub. Using this will widen the truck but with a loss in steering. The B4 setup I desribed above makes the truck wider without the loss in steering.

Making the gt wider in front only makes it push worse. The b4 axles in the rear works well but the front end is fine leave it and go fast. The gt is great in very close to stock form. Use only stock asc. parts except for rpm ball cups. Do not use rpm suspension components they make the truck handle crapy, they were made for the tub style chassis not the newer ft chassis and some of the angles are off to the newer parts.
