whats everyone's take on 8th scale shocks on the truck?
|
the SC10 4x4 own shocks are the best in the buisness. I do not see the need for 8th scale shocks

Anyone know what size set screws go in the Associated pinion gears? Lost my second one yesterday, thanks for any help.
Lock Tite :D |
I have been pleased with the ft shocks so far. I am running mine emulsion style and they soak everything i give them.

And on the "good" price..make sure it's in good condition or that "deal" will escalate into screwed quickly..check for wobbly diffs, warped a arms, worn/damaged CVD's..

I bought the GensAce 6000 saddles, but they did not fit the FT SC10 4x4, they pushed up on the belt cover, so I sold them. It is true that GensAce only has 25c in saddle packs.

WC - are you saying that the geometry in the new FT kit has changed slightly from the original (standard) kit??? I was (ignorantly) unaware of this.
I bought the sc10 4x4 kit when it first came out a year ago and had it driving very nicely by putting 4mm spacers under the front inside camber studs, and 6mm under rear inside camber studs (along with a few other mods). If the geometry has changed, are these spacers no longer 'suggested' on the new FT model??? I have the outside camber position mod (#9873 Carbon C Hub) part on order, do I need to raise the inside rear stud 7mm if using this part, as mentioned a few pages back? using the rear 8mm mod will change the basic geometry.. Carbon C hub mod installed as shown will raise the ball stud 8mm . use 7mm of shims under the inside ball stud on the rear tower. |
for the rear 8mm mod, is anyone using those Hot Racing rear carriers and then doing the mod? If so, got pics?

Make sure the end of cartridge seal tube is installed with tapered side pointed to top... Use O ring #6469 above shock cartridge.... |
