The stock 3.0 degree rear arm mount, part # 7487. Changing this to a 2.5 and or a 3.5 does what to the performance of the car/suspension? How do I lower the front kickup on the b4.1, move spacers to top of the front axle? Thx!!!

Increasing rear toe make the car accelerate straighter in loose conditions, adds traction. In turns it takes away steering and give a more square line. You cannot change the kickup, the shims are for axle-height. In the front you can change the casterblock to decide where you want traction, at entering, even, or exit(30,25,20 degrees).

well, as usual the postal carrier for our street just leaves notices to pickup the package when you have to sign for it, might as well cover up that part where it says they actually tried to deliver the package lol.

So it probably won't be until tomorrow when I can check the a-arms out, or get my escs and other parts.

When the ball diff is is properly installed and broke in on the b4 when you spin just the left wheel after a turn or two should it or should it not turn the rotor of the motor. Im tring to figure out how to tell if its to loose or tight.

And a proper ball diff should spin 1 -1-1/2 times after you flick it.
