Wow, what type of surface do you run on?
I've got mad steering with the Evans setup, I even changed some of the ballstud shims back toward the kit setup to get it to stay planted coming out of the corners and I also still run the 4.0 degree rear toe block, 1 degree antisquat and full length battery on a pretty hi bite clay indoor track. Also changed to the 5* caster and 25* kickup shim.
After reading the caster explanation above I'm thinkin that even the 3* caster could be some more help for my corner exit oversteer.

Ben Thanks for the Diff Size, Muggy, your guide doesnt list size, just somewhere to order them, they dont list size either. Also Muggy, I think your guide is good but a little misleading on caster...

I feel that his guide is pretty much spot on, now the punisher body is out and shipping. also if he listed links to where to buy from they are for the 22 so size shouldnt matter. One weird thing I found was that the 22 is all metric yet still has standard components on it. It is interesting that rather than putting bigger diff balls in or using the same number they chose to add 2 more. Why do this other than to force people into buying the losi 22 carbide balls that arent even in stock yet? whats the advantage?

The Caster part is one of the few parts I didn't write, it was from a team driver and another member who were discussing it...

I would come into a 180 and it would push, I had to wait or stab the brakes. Then get straight and go, by that time, 2 cars burned off on me. I raised the front camber link 2mm for entrance turning, then I lost so much on power steering that I had to let off and coast anyhow. I know a lot of that is the 4 degree toe pushing the front end, but I am not sure that a 3 degree would take that much out. I went to softer front oil and bigger hole piston in the front, because it felt like too much pack, but the car liked being ran stiff a lot better.

Every team guy I have asked, Truhe, Castellano, Root all refer to the Dustin Evans setup.
So far there is no Truhe setup to reference, he said "See Dustin's setup".
Even without the 5*/20* caster/kidkup or the 3.5* toe my car would steer just with the camberlink positions and ballstud spacers.
Tires?
