Default Set-ups

Every driver has there own preferences for the handeling and jumping attitude of there trucks, so some time needs to be spent on the development of a set-up for your own style. with that said I have spent the last two years on the setup of my modified Maxximus truck and this is what I have been sucsessfull with: team Associeated rc10gt rear shocks x8, number 2 pistons, .120 thow limiters inside the shock, 60wt in rear, 65wt in front, team Associeated MGT gold springs all round, -1 to -1.5 degrees camber rear, 3 degrees toe in in the rear, -.5 to -1 degrees camber in the front, 0 to +.5 toe out in the front, front ride height arms level, rear ride height cvd's level or just under if too tight in corners, the diff oils control the amount of under-oversteer I need. At present the front is at 5000wt and the rear is at 3000wt

I hope this helps and feel free to give a shout if I can help.

P.S. the track I run on is BIG, fast clay, with some big air (5-6 feet in a couple of spots) otherwise smooth and fast
