Andrew what were the changes from stockm set up for T4 ?

I went to 35wt oil in the front and a gold spring. Everything else is stock. Also, add some weight to the rear. My truck felt really good with this setup on it. I'm going to bring it down on Friday and play with it some more.

That 4wd main was a blast. We were close the entire 6 minutes. I really enjoyed running with you. I had a hell of a day yesterday, TQ and win in 19t, just 4/10 of a second away from a 13 lap run, and then the win in 4wd. And the Giants beat New England! It was a perfect Sunday for me.

I have lots a slop in my rb5 and the ballstud i think was broken in the rear cause it just fell apart around a turn and i didnt really crash much. Car was so unpredictable.

Give it a go through, Jerry's car was a mess until the main, his steering rack got bound up cause the saver collar loosened up and was binding on the top plate, diff was loose, etc.

I'm going to give mine a rebuild also. I have some slop in the rear and the diff and shocks need to get rebuilt.

The car has been working so well lately, I don't want to screw with it.

Betts - In case I don't see you this week, I found out the deal on the new rear hubs with the different hole positions:

UM519 - New rear hubs for RB5. Supposed to be a stronger material (uses "top" hole).
LA252 - New rear hub for Lazer SP (uses "middle" hole)

I guess I needed a 519, and got a 252 from ya.
