ordered some exotek front suspension, upper deck stiffener and new deck from 3 racing as well as some of the new components exotek posted a couple of days ago ...
my front tyres were wobbly too, just not seating right. any suggestions on shims or washers to tighten up the rims?

I know it gets to repetitious but nip it in the bud, pick up the RCShox upper deck, convert to F104 knuckles. RIDE 104 wheels allow you to use FGX size tires. The upper deck stiffener is not for making the upper deck stronger it is for eliminating some flex, it will still break in the same place.

Hi texastc,
Thank you for updating us about this new upgrade package for the fgx... just want to know if this upgrade parts will be applicable for the exotek conversion kit?? thanks!

if I were to hazard a guess, I would say that there will be an exotek adaptation kit before too long.
But in short - no.

From the Manual I got this List:
QTY SIZE
2 10x15x4 Bearing
6 5x10x4 Bearing
12 5x8x2.5 Bearing
does that look correct?
Also,
Marcus: which of these bearings does your kit include? I will order it soon

actually i did pm miker he told me that his not yet sure, unless the 3racing release their new package. i guess we have to wait for the verdict!

I am pretty sure my upper deck will fit the EXO chassis and for the IFS cars the upper deck will be thicker and made of black material. With the IFS chassis flex is not needed as much.

Hello, for those who have run the IFS (whether 3racing, homemade) does it perform better than standard kingpin coil spring suspension? Or is the additional weight and complexity a disadvantage?
For the rear I could see an advantage vs direct axle. But front kingpin coil spring is already independent suspension at a fraction of the weight.
Just curious if worth it.
Thanks.

The geometry was much better after this mod , perfect rotation and balance!
So Yes i think it will make for a much better driving machine, now whether that relates to faster laptimes or not its hard to say. In my case it did
