Finally got a set of Tamiya shocks built up this weekend. Used 3-hole pistons and Corally 5.8 mm ball cups on the shock shafts.

Do you use the Corally parts on the Tamiya shock shaft? Meaning ball cups and ends.

I probably will not get to do any testing with these shocks until next weekend.

Thanks.

Bill

..with the Corally shock end i only screw them on 75% of the way, to maintain a suitable shock length. (i assume the other guys do the same)

PHI Bearing Kit ?
 
Where is best place to purchase bearing kits ?
I am also looking for bearings for optional duraminium steering knuckle

Could only see 'individual' bearings on the Corally sites.

Cheers

Alan

Alan,

No one here in the US is using the ball bearings in the aluminum steering knuckles. Everyone I know uses the brass bushings.

Prepped and ready to go with no rear shocks? Is that a speed secret? :eek:

I get back this Thursday ( finally!! :rolleyes: ), with the new Phi 09 waiting for me when i get back. I'm aiming to have it built and ready for some carpet racing on Tuesday night.

Will be testing it out with the new 40c packs, and new speedy software so im expecting some serious punch :nod:

Will keep yous posted . . .

crabboy 07-20-2009 01:15 AM

:lol::lol::lol: Yeah the secrets out now, no rear shocks gives a little lower ride height and a little less body roll, lets keep it our secret though.;)

So, being 'down under', do you guys experience less gravity?

There's always Tamiya shocks...

G'day Guys, just picked up my Phi 09 this morning and I have been reading throught the tread in relation to setting up the car. As this is my first Corally can anyone give me some tips on building / setup. The car will mostly run on a concrete surface (stock). Is there any particular spare parts you would suggest I purchase.

Any help would be appreciated
