What did you have to do to get that done?

Just a arm and shock swap?

i had the same problem with rear traction. i moved my shorty up against my esc, as i was similar esc/battery setup as you have. pushing back against esc helped immensely, and it might help you out as well.

Yep, flipped the arms and just moved the shocks back. Only effect is slipper adjustment is tight and the wing needs a cutout.

but how is it with the standard 3 degree toe in.
when you flip the arms from left to right? how is it with that 3 degree toe in?
those arms are not at an 90 degree angle from the chassis I asume.

when flipped from left to right do you stil maintain the 3 degree toe in?

im really intrested, cause you cant find a track with lower grip than mine

the hing pins are paralel so flipping the arms won't affect anything geometry wise.

Hmmmm, I have 1 regular +8mm chassis and everyone on the vip list has theres, I'll have to go to the top of the waiting list unless someone offers me lots of money I asked the machinist to make as many as quickly as I can, once I have a few to sell I'll post up here. Due to the way I'll be doing the shipping, I'll probably have a order minimum of 2 as I haven't found a god size box yet. Once I get them I will have a price and let the people first inline know and give 48 hours to send paypal before going to the next person in line.

The hinge pins are paralleled, the 3 degrees are built into the hinge pin blocks.The DEX210 can adjust both inboard and outboard toe via new blocks and kit inserts.

How does this work out with the use of the droop screw?

I would use limiters in the shock. Especially with the plastic chassis.

FYI for anyone looking for an 8-Racing carbon fiber chassis. I bought one direct from 8-racing for $90 shipped. I will take a bit to get here from Germany but it beats paying $140 plus shipping from the importers.

Are the B4 turnbuckles a direct fit using AE balls and cups?

Ae balls and cups that are the same size and as long as the studs are 3m and the right length why not , the turnbuckles are around different sizes so it may be cheaper to buy the same sizes I have losi 50mm titanium with lungford cups and losi studs all 4.8 mm balls I don't see any if maybe one or two threads so they could be maybe 45-48 mm for a betters length but the cups and balls r your choice
