RC10B4.1 FT/WC
Question guys, I have the kit slipper assembly and have never changed any of it other than pads and I've had the car for like 8 months. My diff is tight and my pads aren't glazed up and I cnt seem to set the slipper where I lifts the tires and slipp also? It seems to kinda grunt when it lifts the front end of the car, what could b the prob guys?
No way slop or excess play is a good thing ..
Can insure a tight well maintained ride is easier to drive and more consistent lap after lap ...
some of the things team drivers R doing for a nice tight fit
*Install grub screws on rear hub
*1mm shims instead of .030in shims for rear arm hub
*rpm ball cups
*Tiz ball studs
*glue HAT bushing to steering rack
*AVID steering
* Ft & Rear wheel HEX

I don't really see how the hex kit or ti ballstudes is going to make anything tighter,my wc car is stock except for the c hubs and bb springs and hexs,plenty of slop and took 1st in a stacked stock buggy class,the thing is 99% wouldnt be able to feel a difference to half of all these "must do things".just get the buggy and drive it!

I think it may be a power problem though cause im using a weak motor.
I floor it and it kinda makes a RRRNNT and th front end just flies up.
I probably did a crappy job building my first ball diff.
Actually though on the first run I was able to set it for 2-3 inches of lift (at least I think!) but not anymore.
I just picked up some rpm ball cups and they seem to be nice and snug. I had tried the JC ball cups and they aren't so good...the plastic is soft and thin around the turnbuckle.

I have used the Team Magic 1mm spacers in the past and they are a true 1mm. The only difference is that the AE are anodized blue.
