2 methods you can do:

use a grease around the threads to help seal the leak or purchase shock cap orings

I m missing something on this r hanger mod..
The optional RF + RR hangers must be used together to bring pins up closer to outdrives and the pic of the modded RR hanger looks to do the opposite and drop the pins from the outdrives.
If you keep the camber link in the same spot w/both hangers then it looks like two different animals, yet they say both add rear traction. Maybe forward vs side?

What would the veterans do to the kit set up to get the rear a bit more planted? It's fast how it is but I could use a little more rear bite.

The hanger mod is used when the bottom plate is not used. It is to bring the whole diff down by 2mm. The optional hangers is to bring the pins up by the same 2mm to the original position.

I supposed this is to help with rear traction.

Got ya on the hanger mod now. Thank You
Haven't pulled the diffs yet but the rear is def lighter than the front.
Looking for more side bite. It "swings" a little to easy on throttle infield but still very controllable and drives better than anything else I've owned. Just don't want to chase setup and make to many changes. I'm sure its very simple because it's almost there.
