I could set it up with damper tubes or with side shocks.
It all depens on what you want.
I could even slap on the other bulkheads on the front so you can run the R5 front end.
All up too you and how fast Joost will send it back too me

Regards Roy
I will send it to you this week Roy, along with the Corally R5 bulkheads...

Once I get things back up and running again, I am seriously thinking about producing wide rear pod conversions for all the cars that have narrow pod designs in both CF and Aluminum.
Here is the one I did for my CRC car.

Mystery solved guys, it appears the lower pod plate screws had backed out a little allowing one of the pod shims to shift creating a gap which allowed play/slop. Should have checked that first I guess but we all do stupid right? lol

Thanks for all your help guys, much appreciated.

Loctite now being liberally applied

Its good when you solve a problem lol. Thanks for your help Joost.

By the way, where do you guys get your BSR tyres from? Every place we try to buy from charges us enormous amounts for shipping to Australia.

so.. IIC this year is offering a 13.5 blinky 2s 235mm class ... if you haven't seen it

based upon the experience of people -- do you think a 3-shock design is needed, or will a single shock + damper tube be enough?

Mike
From my testing single shock w damper tube is fine on carpet
Heavier damping is all that is needed

hopefully the planned weight rules dont put the 3 shock cars at at disadvantage.

We basically took the weight rule off my car set-up at the mile high champs. It had the uber heavy Saxo body and a gigantic brick back and it weighed 1086 grams. So the tri-shock will be no big deal.

availability of 235mm bodies in the usa looks to be one of the bigger issues...
