What's with the attitude? This a tech thread, not a Jerry Springer thread.

Please fill me in
The emulsion orings were in the shock parts bag and go in in place of the bladders.

The little hole is for bleeding shocks with bladders. You can't bleed out the top hole because the bladder would block the fluid path and just balloon out.

Ill post the measurements in a bit.

If your slipper thrust spacer is thinner, than I would suggest finding some 6mmX1mm think washers and try adding them to the outside of the slipper thrust washer.
Hope this helps
Thank you Symmetrcon!!Very useful and helpful info!

the DE wheels for SCTE are about 2mm narrow compared to the stock AE wheels, FYI in case you read that they fit/work. they do but you lose width. That must be why DE said they are making an sc10 4x4 specific wheel

also seeing a bunch of slash wheels on some local SC10 4x4x's and they stick out past the body. good for club racing but good luck at an event.

yup. page 28.
It tells you how to install it. It doesn't tell you about setting. It just says "tighten if clutch slips excessively while driving" and tells you to set the nut with 3.5mm of threads sticking out past it.

Maybe that's why ThunderbirdJunkie's truck looks a bit narrow with the SCTE wheels on it.

Good to know

Can't wait for DE's wheels!

so are you saying these are 2mm narrower too?

my DE wheels seem fine. Anyone have pics with a caliper comparison of both?

The Pro-Trac wheels are fine for width - but the Slash Rear offset wheel will stick out of the body -

Hey again guys, im having a bit of troubles still with the trucks setup. Now i run on mostly dusty 1/8th tracks, and currently my setup is:

30 weight in the front-no rebound-bladders

25 weight rear- no rebound- bladders

over drive in the front

stock ride height, but lowered in the back to make equal front to back.

5mm washers under the front ballstuds

And im running m2 calibers all the way around.

Now the truck is quite good, but still fairly loose in the rear. On long sweeping corners it wants to drift out, and sometimes on the tight corners too, if i get too carried away with the throttle.

Anyways i was just wondering if this can be fixed or helped any further? It just seems like the truck has way too much give in the back.

I did not measure the hex offset.
I just set the rims on my setup board next to each other on the side, de scte and stock sc10 4x4 and the de rim itself is more narrow. they may stick out the same due to offset.

You know what, I have Caliber M4 at all corners and I have exactly the same trouble.......Maybe Caliber at rear is not perfect. I ll going to try bar code, I ll post about that when the test will be done, friday

I just went and hit my AE & DE wheels with my digital caliper and the DE
SCTE wheel is 1/2 mm narrower off set then the AE wheel so that makes
the SC10 4x4 a total of 1 mm narrower with the DE SCTE wheel.

Heres the funny thing I noticed while I was checking them out: The AE
wheel is 1 mm wider where the tire mounts then the DE wheel. The AE
wheel has the outside bead of tire 1 mm out farther then the DE wheel
does. So if you look at it with this in mind the truck will be 6mm over all
narrower with the DE wheel the the AE wheel.

So then I put both the AE & the DE wheels on the SC10 4x4 and the over
all mesurement was 3 mm wider with the AE wheel then the DE wheel. So
even though the inside offset is only 1/2 mm between the two wheels if
you mesure them on the truck the extra width of the AE wheel ends up
giving you a 3 mm wider truck the the SCTE DE wheel does. I'm not sure
this will make a whole lot of difference in the way the truck handles, but
I could wrong"

Sorry, no pictures as I have no idea how to post pictures.
