Anyone have a good starting setup for a bd7 16 running mod on a smallish carpet track? Thanks

Hello.

Is anybody able to tell me if just the bottom chassis is interchangeable between the 14 and 16 bd7?

Thanks

i don't think so. I have both and motor mount holes don't line up. Bulkheads, servo and center weights, suspension mounts and bumper do though

No problems, thank you very much 😊

Question for yokomo experts: Do bd8 shock towers fit the bd7 16 and vice versa?
If yes i can buy the new "big diff/spool" pulley conversion for my 16...

same towers, keep in mind the internal ratio of the bd8 is 1.7 vs the bd7 2.0, belts from conversion may not work...The difference would be the center pulley.

What about running a 20t center pulley from the '15?

If you wanna use 20t pulley from '15 you have to dremel topdeck a little

are we saying this conversion is no good for carpet then?

What reartoe in does the car end up with if you run 2.8 and 7.2 rear blocks. Cant see it on any of the charts. Thanks

Why would it not be any good for carpet?

3.1

Thanks. Is that a wider 3.1?

Shouldn't that be 2.7 and 7.2? All I can find in my charts is a 42.7, no 42.8...

But yes, that would give you 3.1 degrees, and yes about 0.7mm wider than standard.

Thanks. Its on a setup sheet that im trying, so could be that it should be 2.7. Is there a complete suspension block chart anywhere?
