Was looking at the Avid bearing website, what size are the bearings for the steering rack?

Never ran mod before... what gear ratio to start with for a 8.5 and sxx v2. Would you use timing with it? First try I did 19/87 no timing in motor or speedometers but was same speed as my Gemini 13.5 lol

try http://www.comeseethis.com/gearing/Default.aspx

Im running an sxx v2 and an 8.5 Epic D3 with 22/81 gearing. hasn't been above 115, and my boost profile is on the default - 3.

Tried the lt yellow rear kyosho and dark yellow fronts, liked the way it jumps. Lost steering though. Any suggestions?

Timing 3 or feel 3?

Timing, my throttle feel is on 2 for now

Try the Kyosho orange fronts...You will get your steering back.

didnt pay attention that the kyosho springs were longer. Uh set ride height and hello, steering was butter and have to say it jumps nice with those springs.

Does anyone here know the weight differences between the aluminum rear chassis plate and the plastic one? Or the weight difference between the steering parts (the steering rack, caster block, and steering block w/axle)?

Have you seen any pros running any of the aluminum parts you mention?

Oh shoot, I didn't realize I asked about performance!! Oh wait... I Didn't...

Anyone (who read the question) know the difference in weight?

I can check the steering rack for you. I'll PM it to you tomorrow...

Thanks a ton!! When I check out the rear chassis plate on amazon it says the weight for both the plastic one and all the aluminum one's is the same so I know something is wrong there :/

whats your thoughts on the proline closed cell tire foams for the rear tires?
