HB/BCE FTW


on a side note all this smack talk about BCE is getting out of hand!!! if you do not want/like his product and are not willing to wait for a great chassis then leave....

7K


Rear:
27.5wt, #4 Piston, Green Spring, Out on Tower and Arm for Shock Positions, Lower Camber Link Hole on Tower, Full Droop (Unscrew Shock Ends 2 Turns), 27mm RH, 3k Diff, Next Thicker Sway Bar from Stock (Forgot what size), -1 Camber, Stock Antisquat, 3.5* Toe.

HB Megabite Tires.



D8 Hara Setup:

Front: 30wt Losi, 1.3, Grey Springs, 50% Rebound, Out on Arm and Tower for Shock Positions, Middle Hole on Hub (Using Alumnium Vertical Ballstud Hubs), Middle Inside Hole on Tower, -2 Camber, 102mm Shock Lenght, 7K Diff, 2.4mm Sway Bar, 27mm RH.

Rear: 30 Losi, 1.2, Blue 76mm, 100% Rebound, Out on Tower and Arm for Shock Positions, Middle Hole on Hub (Using Alumnium Vertical Ballstud Hubs), Middle Inside Hole on Tower, -2 Camber, 112mm Shock Lenght, 3K Diff, Hubs Spaced 3mm Back, 3.0mm Sway Bar, 28mm RH, Stock Antisquat, Stock Toe.

Looks like we are all close on setup. Only thing I change for outdoors is I go to 5k for front and center diff and go down a couple springs front and rear.
