I think the truck is more sensitive to tuning the rear . When you are figuring out set up problems try to focus on how the truck is driving over the rear end. Is it staying up too stiff or is it rolling around too much. Then tune from there.

Thanks casey, what about the softer springs and/or oil. also, i raced sat and i checked ride height before main and was fine, later in main looked like rear was drooped, thought shocks gave up. checked ride height sunday rear was at like 36 front at 34 seem to drive good track was high grip though. but what happened to my ride ht. i pulled front shocks and still got good rebound havent checked rear yet.

I am hoping to get your body done in time for ya, I suffered a 2nd degree burn on my hand Sat. morning. I have a nice size blister on my airbrush hand.:flaming:

Im guessing it is some kind of update because it also came with a fuel tank pull strap and the front and rear camber screws are plenty long and go all the way through the lock nut on the other side.

I think they may have updated them. Try to call horizon in Ontarion and get someone within Losi. Sometimes you may get the IL office and they may not know about everything with all products. They very well may just be a customer service rep.

I'll ask some of our team this week while at the nationals and get back to you. Send me a email to [email protected], I'll reply back.

Yes I would start a thread and ask people to respond in a specific format, that way it will be easier to read.

reggie l. 07-13-2009 11:48 AM

Front CB Bearing
 
As most know I have been having front CB bearing problems. Ran two tanks this weekend and shield had fallen off and a few of the bearing where missing. I had the right amount of play and the mesh was set good and straight. I was talking with a team driver and he said my CB could be bad? Could this be my problem all along?
