most are running the V2 ae shocks with ae springs and some are just using kyosho springs on the ae shocks. Good spot to post that would be the for-sale section

do not use the U-brace you have ground, use graphite rear brace, arms ,nose plate & Ft brace...

Maybe a stupid question, but what is the ground U brace. What does it help on the stock chassis?

Same problem here, my B4 +8mm is slower and does not handle as well as the stock chassis. Havent given up yet on it as it must be settings or suspension, but not as good as a normal B4 so far.

What is it that you grind down?

when you buy the C hubs there are some optional instructions that describe the grinding of the brace. It is right where the rear inner ball cup clips on, right where the ball stud is screwed in. Myself and many friends tried it with mixed results, I am back to a stock brace. A shaved down version also breaks easier fyi.

Use the grounded U brace when using the rear C brace on the rear hub.


Brents 8M set-up is very good , has great corner speed & balance....

so can someone explain the new hex hub conversion using the new asc front hubs and axles, i was told to buy the sc10RS front hubs and just not run the hexs on the pins so as to use the t4 rear wheels on all 4 corners, but the axles are too short, the e-clip channel doesnt extend out further that the outer bearing. Anyone else have this problem of have any other ideas..... im tired of buying front and rear specific wheels.
