Much to planted and I had trouble getting it rotated through the turns.

Setup:
Front:Yellow springs in front 35W associated oil. Shocks all the way in top, out bottom. 5k oil in diff. 20T pulley, tried the 19T and it was way worse. Tried clicker on, a bit better but a pain to drive so went back to locked down tight. 80 ounces on sided of servo (may try 40 since I use the exotek chassis but flew great) Bump steer set so toe was neutral through entire range up travel. Forgot how many spacer but no more than 3 of the stock associated blue thing ones. Orange barcodes all 4 corners.

Center ball diff installed, tried the VTS and I still feel the diff is superior in all situations.

Rear:
Blue front springs 30W oil. Tops center, bottoms out. 3k oil in diff 20T Pulley. 5mm of spacers for roll center. +8 was to much and I never had traction roll issues at 5mm. M2C rear block at 3.5 with holes lower so should be 0 anti-squat or lowest it goes.

Motor was the new Hacker SC 4 pole at 5.5 and was plenty fast with a 15T pinion. Temp good at about 150-170 with a RX8. I need to bring down my current limiter though, to much power at 100% Can get away with 85 I bet, however I did finish an 8 min A-main with no problems at all using a 5100 65C saddle pack.

Have you tried 3.25° or even stock 3.0° on the m2c with your current setup? Should release the rear end a bit for you.
Or even stay with 3.5° but with-1° anti squat. That will put a lot more of the traction in the front with the trucks weight not transferring to the back as much. Should be easy to get to for tuning adjustments.

Also, how many pins are you running in the C-Diff? How much have you played with that adjustment? More pins may help to take some of the drive from the front and spread it more evenly front to back. Loose tracks you want less pins, high bite tracks you want more.

+1 . Thankfully to change the rear toe block setting isn't like changing the diff fluid :lol:

I've only got 4 pins in the ball diff so I think adding some more is a definite start. I thought it was the other way around for some reason, I can try to play with the M2C blocks a bit too. Both are a quick fix and easy to do. How many more pins do you think I should go up? The track is beyond a high bite track right now, lol!

Thanks.

Hey Ae Sc10 4x4 !

Let me be the first to welcome you to "our" thread here...:)

I would think 6 - 8, probably start at 6. I don't know anyone though that does an odd number ?

Me personally I am going to start at 8 for carpet. Definitely though reduce the toe in. Heck, toying with playing with less than stock toe-in on carpet for even more rotation. Seems to be an out of the box option that some of the future competition is coming with.

Start with 6, minimum for high bite.
Like it? Go to 8. Too much? Back off to 7 and see what pin count works for you.

Added pins locks up the diff more like going to a thicker fluid in a gear center diff. Less pins will allow the diff to diff out more and send power to the path of least resistance... the front when on power.

Thanks guys. I'll give it a shot.

:ha: that's funny, your right all suggest even numbers.
I will get close with even numbers and then go up or down by one from there to get it right for the track.

For the track your describing, start at 6 pins and play with the m2c from there.

Once your happy, go up on pins from there to fine tune the diff. You may end up back at 6, but at least you won't wonder if 7 through 10 would be better.

Extremely curious about this too! ^
Which ones are you gonna try? 89290 and 89338 are pretty close in size, nothing a few down travel limiters won't cure. We already gotta limit up travel, so the longer bodies might do this on their own...
KEEP US POSTED (if I don't beat you to it....)!

I see no reason to run the 16mm shocks.
