Tire Balancing
Hi Guys,
(1) I'm starting to run out of unanswered questions.
But I just thought of another
(2) Has anyone used the "Hudy Universal Tire Balancing Station" (and the associated "Hudy Wheel Balancer Adapter For 1/10th Touring Cars") ?
?
(3) I have seen guys using it and the wheel has less vibration.
However, I'm not sure if "perfectly balanced wheels" has any advantage in practice.
Thanks in advance

Guys,
Does anyone have a picture of a self made diff cover? I've read that it's not all that hard to make one out of vinyl or lexan.
I haven't personally used one but I read a post in which Paul Lemieux wrote about it. He basically said that he didn't see a point on using it because every time he balanced the tires and ran on them, they went out of balance in a short time and sometimes even worse than the state they were in before balancing.

Looks like a no go.

If I'm at a big race, I take all my handout tires, and weigh them, then match them in sets. In very extreme cases, the cars act really funny when giving throttle inputs if they have way different weights on each corner.

I want to use 4mm kickup but idk what how long screws to use
how long should the screws be so it could clear the 4mm kickup spacers and reach the toe block

these should be more then long enough, you can always cut the screws down if they are too long.

make sure the screw has a countersunk head or else it will hang out lower then the chassis and make contact with the track.
