Hi,

Just checking if any one here has tried the AE 6443 Bleeder Shock Caps 1/10???
Kindly share your experience.

Thanks.

Thanks for posting this!

As mentioned you can use a ride height gauge. An easy way to do this is to set your ride height first (5mm for example). If you want your droop 2mm above right height. Place the ride height gauge under the back of your chassis and place the chassis on the 7mm mark. Then adjust the droop screws until the tires just touch the ground.


These caps have a different thread pattern than the TC6 shocks. However they will work on the TC5 shocks.

can anyone please explain which inner camber link hole on tower, short or long ball stud and shims under ball stud to use?
i have been using what the team drivers used but i have no idea when to
add or remove shims or choosing the right inner camber positions

also how would i know is my droop or camber is too little or too much?

thanks for your help

I just rebuilt my TC6.1 shocks and noticed they feel a bit 'stuck' when on the car. What should I check in the shocks? The suspension arms themselves are moving freely. I am running the RSD bladders and pistons.

Also, how long should I build the shocks out to?

Hey everyone, I'm looking in getting a gear diff for the front of my tc6.1. I race at medium/low traction open asphalt track. I am stumped on what diff fluid would be good. I want something thick, I'm only really looking for the diff to slip under extreme loads in the corners. example: If I'm racing someone hard into a chicane for position. I was thinking 100,000wt. I have never used a gear diff so I don't know if 100,000wt is too thin. I was looking at OFNA diff lock. I'm afraid that might be waaaay to thick. . If anyone has any insight on this and could help I'd greatly appreciate it.
Chassis: AE Tc6.1
Class: USVTA

Thanks!

I know in 17.5 blinky we were running 35wt shock oil, seems to be working fine for me. You could try that and see how that works for you. A local fast guy is running 1000 cst. That should be an okay starting point.

Check the O rings. They swell over time. IIRC I think I did mine to 63mm from the top of the cap to the bottom of the shock end.

If you want to go with a front gear diff, get the thickest oil you can find. A couple companies do 500K, and I think ive seen exceed with 1 and 2 million cst.

Thanks, Quick question, do you mean 500k WT or CST? Kyosho has 500k wt. diff fluid.

The Traxxas 500k (part #5039) is often the easiest one to find, and runs six or seven bucks.

I finally took the dive and entered the world of on-road sedan.
Picked up the TC6.1 and waiting for its arrival.
Been researching the thread and had a few questions for you guys.

Will be running 17.5 Blinky with a Revtech and Tekin RS.
Here is what I gathered so far:
FDR should be around 3.5-3.7 - Start with 96/52
Timing on the can about 1 notch back from max.
Which rotor should I use with the Revtech? Stock or HT or ?

Servo - I have a 1258 I can use or will the 1251 be a better choice?

thanks

Anyone?

I would start with whatever link position you ran on the shock tower (1/3 are V1, 7 is V3), and shims to make it close to what you ran on the tower, and then go form there.

I ran the 1258 fine in stock, but found the glitching problem when running mod with a spectrum radio. Switched to a 1251 and the problem went away. The 1251 must draw less power from the bec. I like the 1251 and run it in every car I own.
