Sure thing! Give the setup I posted above^ a shot! I find it works on many different types of tracks. It may work out well for you.

i saw you guys talking about the short ackerman bar giving you more sterring? Is this going in or coming out of the corner? There is always a trade off right?

Great now people have a hard copy it will help with all the different version of wording it cuases so much confusion

Thanks

Straight from the losi manual...
"A long ackerman plate will have smooth off-power steering and is more forgiving. The long ackerman plate will have more steering on-power. A short ackerman plate responds quicker and has more steering in the middle of the turn. A short ackerman plate is better suited to tight technical tracks."

I think that just about sums it up. The 2 plates do feel very different. I prefer the short plate personally. Just give them both a shot. It is 2 screws to swap them.


No problem.

right.... if you say so

I printed it and I am going to give it a try this weekend. Thanks.

Give it a try and let me know what you think. Like I said, it works for me, it may work for you, or it may not.

I am actually pretty happy with my setup since I installed those inclined spindles and carriers and went to the short ackerman plate. Why I am going to change it who the hell knows but I am willing to try for that little bit more.

Might as well give it a shot. If it doesn't work out you can always go back to your standard setup.

I havent put on the V2 rear tower yet, IDK why just havent done it and I was looking for a setup to go with the tower. Thanks again.

You're in for a pleasant surprise in that case! The V2 tower makes a big difference.

You may want to run the bump steer up with the inclined spindles. That seems to be what everyone is doing, with the buggy at least. I haven't gotten the spindles yet, but they're on the way. Should make a dialed truck even better!

Anyone know the part # for the 2.0 rear sway bar? What actually does the inclined spindles do?

2.0 bar is included in this kit.

As for the spindles, read back a couple pages. They basically make the car more controlled when cornering. They are supposed to be better when steering in the bumps too.

thanks again...one more thing im using front & rear smart diffs should try anything different?

Never seen a smart diff used in the rear before! Do you mean front and center? Either way, I can't really be of much help as I don't run the smart diffs. I have run the center before, but didn't like it too much.
