Heres mine from last season with my 7, minor tweaks during the season as the track layouts changed. Overall everything stayed the same for USGT with me.
Could be a good starting spot for VTA
I always ran the original arms too, never swapped to the pivot balls until asphalt season. What arms are you running because its a very different feel with pivot balls. It took me a while to figure them out but the 8 has been spot on since the first pack in it.

all of the ball plastics
I'd keep front/rear arms, rear tower and the anti lozenge top deck on hand if you can. 5x10x4 bearings and you might want belts at some point if you run modified but all of this is going more into breakage than wear.

Took a couple year break and finding I've forgotten everything I know! Lost all my current (personal) setup info so preparing to re-create. A couple questions:
1) I am almost CERTAIN at one point I downloaded a blank setup sheet that had been done for the Mi7's that had the pivot-ball conversion performed. I cannot find it in my computater nor online. Did I imagine this?
2) I DO remember there had been a mistake in shock length published in the pivot-ball conversion...WHAT IS THE PROPER SHOCK LENGTH FOR PIVOT-BALL CONVERTED CARS?
Many many thanks,

10.5 I think was the corrected shock length. I think?
What ever the original Mi7 one was the pivot ball conversion was 1mm longer .... that Im sure of.
