When track is wet I will remove 1 from rear foam.

J Bone, thanks for the reply.

With the Jconcepts blue rear hex's did you guys take the blue spacer off the rear? I have the spacer and the hex on currently and I can see some of the pin so im thinking that the spacer should come off.

Yep, like Brent said, the spacers come off. The instructions that came with my adapters said to remove them, and they seem to work just fine :)

Seems the O ring on top is a little larger than it needs to be cause when i tighten down on the top dealio it seems to squueze the oring out the sides of the housing on top. How do i fix this buy a smaller oring? Can anyone post pics on what they did? Sorry im just a pic kinda guy.

I think you might have the o-rings swapped. If you use the o-ring that goes in the threaded preload nut (on the outside of the shock body) for the cap dealio, it will squeeze out of the cap as you describe.

+1 I bet this is what happened as well. When I was assembling my FT SC10 shocks, I almost did this... but I luckily caught it at the last minute. But, it's an easy mistake to make :nod:

weight
 
When going off a team drivers setup and they are running big mod motors and such as 7.5 for example, if I'm running just stock should bi use the same amount of weight they are useing such as 3oz with the batt foam or should I scale down? Help needed

Does anyone play with roll center on the rear? If so did it help?

I currently have two washers on the front and two in the rear.

I'm looking to get more rear traction on turns. Already got .5 hubs.

TIA

yes it works that is something you need to test when your at the track,i never charged my batteries yesterday and i was there 2hrs before you all i did was make a 5-6 lap run and make a change

JEFFs SC10 02-13-2012 04:35 PM

you ran your SCT? I'll have to get there earlier next time.

20 SMOKE 02-13-2012 04:37 PM

no but the same rules apply for setups

JEFFs SC10 02-13-2012 04:38 PM

cool.

Hmm, I have no experience with the b4, but sounds like a transmission issue like a broken tooth or something. Have you checked all your gears?

When my sc10 was clicking and I couldn't' figure out what it was, it turned out to be the dog bone slipping out of the hub just far enough to cause it to hit the opening of the hub with a loud "click" then slip off and keep spinning the wheel. It took me while to figure it out since it only happened to the inside wheel on fast inside turn with lots of grip.

It shouldn't make a difference if your running a 7.5T or a 17.5T motor. The weight on the different motors is quite similiar as far as I am concerned, the stators are just different turns, everything else is the same. I have a 10.5T motor and run near 3oz. of weight in my battery foam, and it works perfect.
