Thanx, I just massaged the pins with sand paper and a drill and got them to work.

1. oh yes, I got it
2. can you elaborate that? (tightness of long screw on spur)
3. I think it might be used for weight or for battery mount. For a carbon/plastic item shaped like Γ in order to keep the battery down. Something like that http://jdandracing.blogspot.com/2004/03/blog-post.html
4. Kit stabilizer setting is 3.5, while EJ used 2.5mm. What is the difference in performance between the two?
5. There are two stabilizers mount S and L. What is the difference?!

I know many questions, but lacking track time I need to have ready what changes I should do every time I go to the track!

My lay shaft screw can move slightly left/right

I've never run sway bars on a photon. Not planning on starting with the ex.

Here you will find a editable setup sheet.
As usual, I added some magic to this document as well as some extra fields.
If you want to add a setup to the link on top, an email address is indicated on low right part of the setup sheet.
Feel free for comments.
