Isn't your droop or shock length different the right wishbone sits lower than the left or is it just my imagination

Does anyone know if E4P has a website? Looking for the 415 spool. Or are there other brands etc?

Marc
E4p's website is http://www.e4p.biz/ but there's nothing to look at for the 415.

probably cause I'd only just put the car back together after giving it a strip down, and hadn't re-set it yet...

any chance of finding out why you required it?

Anyway, I got a copy of my latest set I've been running. It's so far worked well in stock, both on running track (Don Valley) and sports hall (chesterfield) surfaces.

I've put it on my updated setup sheet for the 415 lightweight arms. I've removed some options, and added in other (ie lower shock mounts, shock lenght etc). I also added a section for the chassis braces' given surikarin (!?!) ran without them on occasion, and a section for the belt tension

415 indoor setup

few things to note.
1) running C/A block on front
2) red roll bar on rear (may change when other springs arrive)
3) Spool and locked centre pulley.

Hope it helps

Ed

Thanks for that, looks like I won't need the alloy rear uprights.
