I have been running both the Old Skool Speedmerchant front end, and the newer one, but the Corally front end was actually the fastest and the smoothest... I did not have faith in it in the beginning, so I was racing other front ends, but when forced to try, I realized I should have done so from the beginning...

Anyone know where to ket Kimbrough #180 the offset axle holder for 12l4?

Hi All -

I'm getting a lot of push on right handers only. Turning left is no problem. I have checked the tweak on a tweak board, and it is spot on. I have also verified that the servo travel gives the same steering angle both left and right. The tires have been swapped left/right in both the front and rear, and are within .001 of the same diameter. This is on a 12L4 with .020 front springs, stock shock spring/oil, and the .075 T-bar. Running Parma purple fronts, and I tried both pink and gray Parma rears. Paragon on inner half of each front, all of each rear. 3.5mm ride hight front and rear, batteries back, CO27 motor, 1.83 rollout on high bite CRC fasttrack carpet. Any ideas on how to cure this? Maybe the diff is too tight?

check that both of your lower front arms are the same height at the pivot ball.i have had some of the front ends be .5mm different left to right which will screw things up.all you will need to do is sand them into allignment.also make sure that you sand the mounting surfaces of the arms because they are not in line with eachother front and rear.this will twist the chassis when you screw the arms onto the chassis.

Thanks, Jason!

I will also be sure to check this when I finish building my DB12 later today.

Another hopefully quick question. What parts are included in the CRC Uni-Tune conversion kit? I assume that it includes parts to convert a 12L4 from dampener disks to dampener tubes? Is this correct? The part number is 1328, but they don't have any description or pictures on the CRC site. Thanks!

This may be a dumb question but have you checked to make sure your circles are the same size left to right? IE putting the car up to the wall and making a full lock half circle to the right and then putting your foot down at the stoping point and turning the car around to see if the left is the same size? I make this simple mistake all the time.

Where does one set the power 1-5 on a Quantum 2 for stock carpet racing?

Thank you,

The one I have I bought a few years ago, but assuming the parts are the same now the kit has all that you need to convert an L4 to damper tubes. That's tubes, top plate, cross brace and the hardware. In addition, it has the parts to add side springs, if you wish, like a Carpet Knife (then you don't use the tweak screws in the t bar)

Add to that... make sure your fornt springs are not collapsed... just change them out, they are cheap... Also maks sure your kingpin is shimmed the same on both sides... and the axel is centered in the rear....

hey guys,i am just about finished with the developement of our new style rear suspension.i think this is going to bring 1/12th a step forward.i am very excited about this.unfortunately i will not be posting pictures until its release but rest assured,you wont be disappointed.

Saw it today and I must say "WOW" ,Jason a "genius!!"

Will it be included in the DB12 kit or as a hop up?
BTW, were can I get a DB12 kit?

this is going to be released as a full car.i will be making just about everything on the car from the axle to the front end.it will be all machined for the needed precision.our 1/12th conversion that we have now is available through out website or you can call us at 352-544-0463.we wont be back into the office until monday.thanks for you interest.

Great!
Got a rough estimate on when the full kits will be out?
What about Pre-Orders?
