Are you sure he didn't tell you that the thrust balls are a smaller diameter then the diff balls?

Hmm, sounds interesting as I only race carpet during the winter.
If I would try that, what do I need? Rear arms&hubs? (+what you wrote above for the shock mounting) |
Has anyone had issue getting screws into hard arms for rear shock? I stripped out two screws, finally got one in all the way and the other I had to add one plastic spacer to keep shock from jiggling. What's trick here, anyone drilling pilot hole?

when you say stripped out screws, do you mean the head of the screw or the plastic you are threading into?
if its the head of the bolt you probably have a rounded off tip on your allen driver and either need to replace it or cut a bit off to square it off again. You can also look at tapping the hole before you try and thread the bolt in or use a cap head screw instead of a button head since they have are a lot harder to strip out, |

I’m a fan of MIP drivers. I have their hand tools, and the speed drivers I use with an electric driver. |
Any of you guys that run on carpet use show tower protectors? My new track is requesting them and I don’t see any to buy. I assume you have to make some,would like to see some pics

The shock has lots of compression and little rebound so looks good to me.

Or the quick answer, its nothing to worry about. It looks pretty good. Try to build each shock with similar rebound and you’re good to go. |
