COYOTETECH FT Lightweight Chassis Brace 
No, it's not a amazing re-engineering. It's just designed for racing.
Not trying to Plug my brace, but it doesn't validate it's own thread. There is a link in my Signature to the post now so this should make it easier for me and I can just focus on getting them out instead of tracking down information for you.No, it's not a amazing re-engineering. It's just designed for racing.
All lightweight.
- Heavy Duty AE Rod Ends
- Hobby Quality Carbon Rod
- AE FT Spacers
- Washer on shaft helps with notorious splintering
- Rod Ends Epoxied in for weight loss over my original full length rod
~Final Cost: 20.00 Shipped It's up there a bit more than what I had originally hoped. But I hope it's still better for you guys than the alternative brace: (30.00 +shipping)
To purchase:
Paypal 20.00~
Price includes anywhere in the USA (please don't send me questions about zipcodes, USA=20.00)

The Brace will be shipped that closest Monday unless I PM you otherwise. (only thing would be backordered parts)
- If you want it shipped somewhere else, the shipping is pretty gnarly. But I will do whatever you want.
Disclamer: This is not designed as a Basher's chassis Brace. It is designed for lightweight bracing on the top of a truck. Ounces matter to you guys, so I did it. Bashers: take that as you will.

That looks dialed!
Something blue, maybe some sorta cone washer or something, or just a standoff to that's small enough to clear the lower part of the eyelet where the shaft is.
Looks killer though, great work man.

I literally was just ordering those.
But
Orange like the FT Ti-nitride AE Nuts?
Grey to highlight the Blue?

I'm done with them. As soon as I get a spacer ordered, I'll be making and shipping out as they are ordered. It's really only word of mouth how I sell these, I'm only looking to help you guys out and pay for my fuel. 
And now it looks hot too. I had to increase the price due to the costs of this stuff but it's still quite cheaper than the alternative.
I have 6 people waiting, so hopefully i'll be back in flow by the end of the month. (meaning, not trying to catch up but sending out on an immediate order basis again, School and work are taking me a beating on building time)
Either way, I should be able to get these 100% by Monday, then I'll be sending out the 6 and anyone else who ordered by the end of that week.

Grey ordered. (blame T-bird if you don't like it.
)Edit: I'm still trying to find time to start testing that Bearing-diff fix for the wobbly outdrives. I haven't forgotten.

make sure you use "ball dif grease" it makes a huge difference, regular grease will slip no matter what you do. Dont ask me what th edifference is but if i put regular grease in , it slips with the same settings.
No reason for front overdrive but i have not tried it, technicall with the center dif the front tires expand more than the rear giving you overdrive anyway but only when you need it......down the straight!
Coyote, use my setup exactly so we have somewhere to start from. I have very slight on power push but i will take that over turn entry push anyday and its not enough to alter my driving style. You should not have to try and "rotate" your truck around the track, its very hard to drive fast and consistent not only that but with the Cdif all rotation is numbed but you will get better steering all the way through the turn. i find that if i "flick" the wheel it will rotate but most of the time it just turns wherever i want it and always seems to have more steering if i need it to pass or get off of line. Think about what is happening, you have basically seperated the front from the rear, by nature this will give you a tighter turning radius but on exit acceleration as the power plants to the rear the front will unload and give you push. for you simply using the 3-3 block may fix it all for you since it puts more pressure on the front tires you will get more on power steering.
we need a known foundation in order to help your problem and the best way is for you to copy my setup since we all know it works very well!

If they're smart, they'll build the entire Belt tunnel in Carbon fiber or at least re-enforced Graphite, and I'll be out of a job. I'm okay with that, as long as it works.
And Thanks! I'll have pics on the truck in a while.
