I have the Moorespeed Cyclone and when I built it, I put the Front One-Way with One-Way layshaft pulley as well. I am curious what situations the spool would be used?

I am running an indoor carpet track with fairly good bite.

Can anyone explain the differences between the two diffs....

cant understand what is going on, as the 48 spur gear has the same diameter as the 64p that come with the kit ??

any ideas/ solutions,

I was hoping to race tomorrow night

cheers Kevin
I had the same problem trying to use 72t 48 pitch and noticed that I needed a bigger spur like 78 to work unless you are willing to do some filing.

Is it me or do I need to cut the suspension mount shims in half to use them on the front rear brace? And the rear front brace? I have noticed different mm shims on setup sheets.

I noticed Speedtech has 2 different part numbers for the diff pully and oneway pully. Does anyone know why?

the suspension shims are actually different thickness of washers like these:

the diff and oneway pulleys are drilled out and mounted differently.

That seems a like a little to much isolation of stress to one point. A shim that is full width of the mount that touches the chassis would be best.

I will say that for a car of this caliber. The instructions were not good at all with setup help. For exapmle the suspenion mount roll cenetr adjustment.

Hi Dodgeguy,

I'm not too sure if i understood you correctly, but i think you want to shim the suspension mounts. It isnt possible to have a shim that runs the full length of the mount because of the belt that passes under the mount thru the little gap. Aluminium shims exist already for the pivot blocks, but aluminium washers appear to be the best shim for the front rear and rear front suspension mounts.

or you can try this:http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXPFC3&P=Z

if that's what I think you would need, though it's not purple.Also I think you can only use this for rear rear and front front only, cuz like what Jimbowamba(LOL)mentioned placing it in the ft rear and rear front would hit the belt.
