Using the RSD Lightweight suspension on a 6.2, what should the spacing be in front and behind the arms? I've shimmed mine to approximately the same positions as the stock arms, but I'm not sure if that's a good place to start or not. I have something on the order of 6mm ahead of the front arms with 3mm behind and 3mm in front of the rear arms with 6mm behind.

Order placed for the new ones. We have a few low grip tracks over here so something with more bite would be awesome.
I've just started playing around with the Xray PSS progressive insets too, which have potential. I think it makes sense to use a progressive spring with these, so will try them with your silvers.

Nutdriver, your spacing sounds about right. I usually run maybe a little longer in the rear like 5mm behind the hinge pin. But you are in the ballpark.

Is this the original tc6? One upgrade that could be good is a narrower chassis. We no longer have the steering bellcranks in stock, but we do have chassis and servo mounts for the floating steering. Thisbis a pretty big imrovement for the car.

I have several options right now for you. Contact me at the store and I should be able to take care of you on chassis. We are making them custom now, so I can give you the options best suited for your application if we discuss it.

Had another fun day with the LCG chassis for the T4'15. I finally arrived in the 11.4s laptimes.
Today it was around 10 degrees Celsius colder than the days before. The car worked still very nice. Just all its aggressiveness was gone. The rear was planted. Over the day I reduced the rear toe from 2.5 to 1 degree
and the rear was still a little to good and I missed middle rotation.
I will try rollbars and springs again next time if this behaviour stays...

P.S. Will you ever manufacture the wide axles for your CVD's again. I prefer them

Damian, the new progressive and linear springs are different. The linear springs are same design, but new batch, so they are just a bit different. The new progressives are all new and improved. They use different wire and slightly different coil pattern. I have gotten nothing but positive reviews on them, carpet and asphalt, people feel they gain grip and response. To me the car feels like it is going in fast forward while everything else stays slow. It is wild.
No plans to make the other axles right now, unfortunately. Business is far too slow to be able to justify the added cost.

Ran the RSD Lightweight Suspension for the 6.2 yesterday. Broke two C-hubs that I think the stock parts would have survived. Put on the Tuning Haus aluminum C-hubs for the 6.2. Have to say that I'm disappointed with the (lack of) durability of the c-hubs included with the kit.
