Sorry to hear that bad info is out there, but they will not fit properly, I can confirm that.

Ran the truck tonight for the first time in months...and managed to get 2nd tonight(technically 1st) as the winner was the only mod truck in the class. The truck is awesome I will be trying white rear springs the next time out just for the heck of it..but I am glad I decided to keep it instead of trying to dump it

Default 22 vs. 22T Spindles

Hey Guys,

I have had a few questions regarding the 22 vs. 22T Spindles, and I just wanted to set everything straight.

22 Spindles:
Stock - TLR1061 - Plastic/composite molded spindles have 2mm of trail
Option 1 - TLR1062 - Plastic/composite molded spindles have 0mm of trail, otherwise referred to as "inline".
Option 2 - TLR1073 - Aluminum CNC Machined spindles with 2mm of trail.
Option 3 - TLR1075 - Aluminum CNC Machined spindles with 4mm of trail.

22T Spindles:
Stock - TLR1103 - Plastic/composite molded spindles have 0mm of trail, otherwise referred to as "inline".
Option 1 - TLR1109 - Aluminum CNC Machined molded spindles have 0mm of trail, otherwise referred to as "inline".

The 22 and 22T spindles have different bearing spacing that will not allow the 22 axle to fit in the 22T spindle. The 22T front wheel will hit the 22 spindle arm, ball stud, and steering ball cup, so the 22T wheel will not fit on the 22 spindle. I attached photos, with the part number saved in the description.

I'm new to the 22T, just traded for one. I see a lot of talk about hop up parts. The car came with the aluminum caster block. I have the aluminum battery bracket and did the 1mm tranny loft. What else helps. Let me say I have a 22 buggy so I understand that set up and time make the car but what hop ups are worth my money.

Other than what you got, you should be good to go. The Aluminum camber blocks fr ar rr are nice though but not totally needed.

The rating is a littlle conservative. You should be able to crank the timing on the end bell with no problems if that is what you normally do.

Default rear tranny raise

i have had my 22t on the shelf since the indoor season ended and wanted to ask how do you do the tranny raise in the rear everyone is doing? any help would be appreciated, i guess it helps keep the rear end more planted.

thanks in advance

I added 30deg aluminum front pivot just for the weight. And the rear aluminum hubs for strength. If you use the aluminum hubs consider titanium ball studs as well in the hubs.

You can turn up the timing on the motor no problem with that ESC, there should be no issues at all. Keep an eye on the temps, but the ESC should have no issues.

Not too bad for an "RTR" ESC...huh
