Thanks, I've been looking for an alternative truck front.

Not showing on Losi's own web page, although there are several pics all over of their new 22T with those very same tires on it! I wonder if they're discontinued?

Managed to score some on ebay for $10 w/shipping!

Anyone have Avid Aluminum Steering Bellcranks they want to sell or know who has them in stock?

Its a great all around tire to run on anything that isnt blued up. Nice smooth steering with no surprises. It aint the FASTEST tire... but its easy to be consistent with them.

I put 6 packs thru my T4 today and man i gotta say my truck is money. Make sure you use the rear FT trans weight, and i put 10 grams on each side of the tub next to the servo and 5 grams on the front bulkhead.

Im gonna add another downtravel limiter to the rear shocks, but drilling the 4th hole in the shock tower...

Just awesome...

On that note I am surprised that associated hasn't released a revised shock tower with the 4th hole?

Maybe they are waiting for the release of the T5? I cant see them releasing a new buggy, and not a new truck. Maybe there isnt enough interest (currently) in ST racing to justify a 'retool' for a 'new' rear tower.

I just happened to see it on Cav's CRCRC setup and figured i would try it out. I had a spare rear tower and used it as a jig. MAN does it make a difference though. It feels like a B4... just more grip, stability, and weight transition is a little slower.

I dunno much about the SC10... are the towers interchangeable? I know the rear 'bumper' attaches to the top of the SC tower... but other than that, would one just slap on the T4?

Im curious as to the actual OE 4th hole position... and if its why i feel i may need another rear downtravel limiter.

Using another tower as a jig seemed like it would keep the geometry the same (downtravel staying the same through the range of upper positions)...

Anyone tried using goosebumps on the front? One of the tracks I run on is very loose and goose bumps work great on the rear.

I use green goosebumps front and rear on a slippery track - they have just a tad more turn-in than rib fronts with goosebumps in the back

The Cavalieri setup on the Associated website is dialed.

Agreed. I only changed a few things to fit my preference, and added weight here...
