Joe- i checked with todge on this...and you are correct, with the losi low roll center blocks, a 2F pivot mount would yield O kick as you pointed out. the losi low roll blocks are actually more of a mid roll center block. however, the trinity MF low roll center blocks used at the lowest position, in combination with the 2F pivot block would result in 2 kick. i use my own LRC blocks which duplicate the measurements of the MF ones...

ok... i asssumed that you were using the losi low roll center...

what would say is the effect of the (MF) low roll center with 2deg kickup as compared with a high roll center and 0 kickup, as far as steering is concered?

i'm just wondering what's the more predominant effect... the increase in steering as the low roll center would "want to dump more" on the front tires or would kick-up offsett this?
