Losi Brown grease on king pins
Caster shims 1 in front and 1 behind the upper arm
-2 degrees camber
1 degree total front toe out
#2 BMI ride height shim


-Rear-

Parma Pro38 Greys cut to 1.74"
.068 Side Plates (kit stock)
#3 WindTunnel damper fluid in tubes
35wt Losi oil in Center shock
Associated gold spring
Shock length was 2.66"
Shock mount raised 2mm
IRS 3.5 ride height adjuster in down position


I think that's the pertinent info. Body was a Parma Speed 8 HD LW. I ran 19t with an Orion Element geared at 88/32. It ran strong for 8 minutes too. I tried changing camber to -1.5 and putting both caster shims back on the upper arm, but I really didn't get a chance to see what the car would do with the center shock collar loosening on it's own. That'll be fixed for this weekend though.
