I use the old stock one (2 mm). I set it about 12 mm from the end but the sway bar is mounted on the inner side of the lower rear arm (not outer as what the manual suggest).

Following on from my previous question, isn't the 35W Serpent oil more suited for the Red springs?
Trinity 40WT is the equivalent of which Serpent oil?

So Pyramid, this is a good point.
As a guideline, what oil do you use for which springs?
The kit comes with 30 - Yellow.

The 710 kit comes with 30w oil. I heard a while back that the weight is different from other brands. Serpent 30w is the same as Trinity 70w? BTW what Serpent shock oil weight would yo recommend on a high bite smooth track?

Front bulkhead low => rollcenter high. Slightly less grip but faster response.
