Outer - B works for me.

The bump steer just changes the height of the inner steering link ends. It changes how the bump steer acts. If you don't know, bump steer is the change in steering angle when the suspension is compressed(in the bumps). It is pretty much always run down. With the inclined spindles it is recommended to run it up.;)

Yes sir that is correct. That is what I always run. If you look at setup sheets like by Drake, you will see he notes that, that is how he runs them.;)


Thanks guys. http://planetsmilies.net/happy-smiley-582.gif

Also good to run bumpsteer "up" in the stock form. It's an easy adjustment to make. People should try back to back practice runs or qualifiers and see how they like it. I've run bumpsteer "up" since the first month I ran a Losi on track back in '06.

Did my kit come with the short ackerman arm or do I need to buy one?

For the front and rear drive shaft change outs Ive always broken down the rear / front diff to hold the pinion while putting on the CV is their another way is that what you guys are doing cause if I just change out the front/rear CV without breaking down the diff it will have slop and the gears will bind.

Just checking last question are you shimming the rear a tad tighter on the rear for your electric or the same way as the nitro.

im just wondering what peoples opinions are on maxlife shoes. i know they last for ages but im looking for your opinion on there grip

im going to give them a go in place of the comp shoes in my setup because i have always thought they are a slippery shoe and i dont have a lot of faith in the comp shoes anymore

that would give me a setup of 2 maxlifes with green springs and 2 losi blues with gold springs

im trying to find a setup hat is going to work as close to my current setup as possible
