I like the stock foams. I've seen guys running AKA foams also.

what will happen to my steering if I change to the 30 degree caster hub? more or less steering in the turns?

Have a few ?'s:rolleyes:

1. Can I put an 8 cell in it? I already have 2-8 cell nicad/nimh charger for my B44 so I cannot switch to lipos now. I thought I heard u could fit an 8 cell in a SC10. I plan on getting another Castle mamba max esc. Their motors can handle 8 cells.:tire:

You can fit an 8-cell if you mount the 8th cell on top and in the center of the pack

2. Can I run any motor in them. I run brushless. I have a spare castle mamba 4600 & a 7700...7700 to much?:sneaky:

Yes you can run whatever you want

3. Do they need weight in the front at all?

No it does not

4. What are the side bumper things for . I plan on getting the baja bug body that doesnt need them.:eek:

They are there to protect the chassis and to prevent the wheels from getting tangled up when you bump into other trucks.

5. Can I run any motor in them. I run brushless. I have a spare castle mamba 4600 & a 7700...7700 to much?:sneaky:

6. I am doing the kit so I will be getting some extra parts as it is being ordered...any suggestions? :batman:

Pick up a couple extra arms, a front bulkhead, the FT aluminum front hinge-pin brace, and some JConcepts Goosebumps

I loved that light kit I saw in this thread ......:tire::tire::tire::tire:

That should do it.

The 30's - More entering speed and smoother exiting with more control.

The 25's - Turned in good but it seemed like it was tight on exit and under power it wanted to go wide.

A really good servo is a must for the serious racer.

Bashers could use almost any servo. zeeeeeerrrp zeeeeeeeeerrrp.

thanks for the reply. You explained what I wanted to know

i just got the inline steering axles and didnt notice a huge difference. Maybe a little more twitchy. I was kinda hopeing for more off power turning.

Also anyone strip an idler gear in the trans? I just ate one for no particular reason

Anyone from the A @ Nats have a setup posted yet?

I wasn't at the nats but I've got a pretty good setup :).

well hook it up!:nod:

Axle Height is center and the Caster is 30*

Bump steer washers = 1 with short black studs on steering rack

Let me know what you think if you try it.
