Hey guys ive had my b64d for about a week now and im using cavs latest setup on the site but i still need more steering in the corners. Im using yellow front spring and green rears as hes using red front and white rears. And i went to 32.5 oil im the front and it helped a little. Im also running 18mm ride height and 10k/300k/10k diffs. What would be the best thing to change to get more steering?

I'd go 1mm lower on the front than the rear and go one spring harder at the rear. That should sort it.

Most notable things I've done that had a positive impact on steering - more steering and/or better steering:

+1 ackerman plates from Schelle - These were great! and pretty cheap to boot. Highly recommend.

Brass B block

Softer front sway bar (black)

Stiffer rear springs (gray - but I'm on high bite)

Typically with the Type 1 I run thicker front diff oil than rear, 10-7 or 15-10 on the front-rear diffs.

We also have the new Type 3 which is less ackermann, less initial turn in. I would recommend those for more smooth and flowing tracks. The type 1 are very fast in the tight turns.

Just got the B64. Does that 13 degree front caster blocks make a big difference in the handling of the buggy? This thing is a twitch monster and I m try to mellow it out. I also had to cut my steering end points way back as well it had way too much steering. Any help is appreciated. I'm sure the info is in here somewhere, but way to much to Reed through it.
