T4 Setup:
Front:
3 piston, 25 wt, 2 limiters, silver spring, outside on arm, middle on tower, 30* blocks, 2 spindle washers, 2B camber with 1 washer.
Rear:
1 piston, 25 wt, no limiters, black spring with 2 coils cut off (need b44 offset spring cups so you can get the correct ride height), inside on arm, inside on tower, 2* antisquat, .5* Racers edge hubs spaced back, 1B camber link with 1 washer.
Battery forward (5000 Reedy), 8.5 motor (LRP X12 with stock 12.5mm rotor) with 87/21 gearing. No weight added.
Jconcepts blue carvers and Jconcepts blue barcodes scrubbed way down with stock JC foams.

Also another question, what do you guys use for limiters on the inside of the shock? O-rings? Plastic bushings? And another thing, are the bleeder caps really that beneficial? Is there any kind of bladder you can get for t4/b4 shocks like 1/8 scale?

so on setups from ae's website, when they say 6 limiters, they mean 6 of those or what?

If the setup says six washers or six limiters it typically refers to the smallest size. You can use any combination you want to get the same amount of limiting.
Washers on the steering spindles are typically used to remove bump-steer in the front suspension. The B4 manual explains when you should use these limiters and how many. 25 degree blocks and steering spindles in the middle of the caster block typically require one spacer under the ballstud. Add another if you run the spindles in the down position.
Checking out the manual or the B4 setup guide explains this much better.

On camber links, if you look at a setup sheet on rc10.com it will show you what I mean. From inside to outside is 1, 2 then A, B, C.
