4. .50mm crc front spring. also added 1.5mm spacer as crc spring is shorter
5. added 2mm bumpster spacer
6. set static caster to 3.25deg
7. upper arm mount set to 5deg reactive caster
8. shock oil changed to 35wt losi with blue associated spring
9. 7k tube lube
Car is much more stable. I can still induce wheel lift if I pull on the steering hard enough. One of the local fast guys took it for a few laps and said it was smooth and balanced. I think it can be better yet and to try out couple other things:
1. Try crc .45mm front spring
2. Reduce some ackerman by moving servo forward by a 1mm or 2mm
3. Reduce pod droop
4. Increase tube lube to 10k then 15k just to feel the change.
Well, you did almost all of the things I suggested. Now, use the 5K in the tubes. Your using a little to thick of lub. The wheel should sit down when you use the thinner fluid.
