I took a better look and see what your talking about now. The ones I posted are the inner. LOL!!
Where can I get those at, or should I just get some of the 2.0 outer pins? All I know is I'm getting pretty tired of bending pins everytime..

you can get them at amain hobbies there mc2 brand pins also there $13.00
the 2.0 pins are good.. but you do have to use the 2.0 hubs i tried to use the 1.0 hubs and drill them out the pins whould not fit at all no matter what i did.

the problem, i have with using the 2.0 outer rear pins and hubs is that i cant use the same hole in the rear hub and use the #4 hole on the rear tower i cant adjust the camber over 1 - because i cant go any farther wihtout stripping the ball cups.

so thats the problem you will have .
so i have to use the (b) hole on the hub and use #4 hole on the tower which i dont like using the (b) hole it doesnt give you enough rotate in the rear.

you can use the upper hole on the tower using #1 hole on the tower with the (a) but going my the manuel at least it says it works good on a high tracton tration which i dont race on at least.

i like to use the (a) hole with the #4 on the tower i dont like the (b) on hole on the rear hub.

i have no idea how using the (a) hole on the rear hub with the upper #1 hole on the tower would work on my track.

Camber link location's have Nothing to do with the rear hingepins.

Get the 2.0's with a set of rear arms and rear hubs and your good to go.

im talking about the 2.0 hubs also thats giving me a problem im just letting him know that.
do i, need the 2.0 t arms and rear turnbuckles to help solve my problem or just run the upper #1 hole on the rear tower with the link in the (a) on the rear hub ?

well i, was thinking and im pretty sure the only way i can setup with the 2.0 rear hubs and have the same setting with the camber link in the #4 hole. on the tower, and the (a) hole is to cut off the the section where the 4 hole is on the 2.0 hub i know it will look weird but i think it would work.
