  • Shock Position: Top - outer lower hole on tower (position #6). Bottom - outer position on arm.
  • Rear Upper Link: Position #2 on shock tower and position #1 on hub. For less steering move to position #1 on shock tower. For low traction tracks move to position #2 on hub.

Tires & Wheels:

Stock Hyper Tyres and rims only

Ride Height & Droop:

  • Set ride height front and rear with dog bones level to ground.
  • Set droop in front end to 45mm from bottom of chassis to ground.
  • Set droop in rear end to 48mm from bottom of chassis to ground.
  • When track conditions get rough, try limiting the droop so the tires skip across the holes instead of falling in and upsetting the handling.

Team Tips:

 

Tip 1. Drill out the 4 piston holes in the rear shocks with a #56 bit (1.18mm) and use 30th oil to help the rear of the truck float through rough bumpy sections and to prevent the rear from kicking up off jumps and nose diving.

Tip 2. Mount stock shocks in lower holes on shock tower both front and rear. The upper hole allows the suspension to travel up to far and will bend dog bones.

Tip 3. Cut off the center ridge on the wheel for harder foam inserts.

Tip 4. For some tracks you can move the battery box back for more rear traction by drilling and counter sinking the 5 holes 36mm back.

 Tip 5. Replace rear axles and dogbones with front CVD's for more rear suspension travel.

Tip 6. Mount shock stand offs to towers with shorter bolts, then fit c/s bolts and washers to shock mounts to stop shocks pop off.

Tip 7. Fit shock or sway bar lower balls to steering ends use c/s bolt to stop steering arm pop off.
