You want to bevel to topside of the chassis cutouts (for the front-rearwards; and for the back-forward) just a little so that when you run your diffs in the low position, the drive belt has no contact/friction on the chassis surface. Also, depending on the size spur gear you plan to run, you may want to modify the chassis at the spur gear area if you want to run a 64p spur taller than a 130 tooth. Good luck.

I own a jrxs anyway so the cutouts are being prepared!
And I can pilfer the adaptor altho a new one would be nice.

Are you guys running similar gearing on the R as you do on the M?

So, can anyone enlighten me into any hints or tips on the build, what to purchase for it, a good source for setups etc etc...
Cheers

Personally i have now done away with the JR links as this car does not need to stay flatter on the front as did the old car, that way you can get a hell of lot more corner speed with the 'R'
If you want a setup for rubber on ashfelt, please ask away and I will forward to anyone that wants it

A6007 - Ball Studs (Set of 4 - long thread/short neck)
It's the same setup as the original JRXS front upper camber link. I don't think the overall car setup will change much, if at all.

Hey thanks for your help everyone.
On the hunt for a rubber on carpet setup, any ideas?
