What 65mm spring did ya use for the front what ya get it out or off of. Thanks for the video great stuff love the stance of your rig bet it kills hills
Hi great video!!! Where did you get the 65mm springs for the front intergy shocks? You running intergy front dhocks at the back and rear at the front? Cheers rob
Note that, as vid mentions, the diameter of these springs is same as original so they were ultimately installed on the original shocks...while they might work OK on the Integy shocks, they are slightly smaller diameter and I was not happy with the wonky fit on the Integy spring seats...
Your steering knuckles are in line with your linkage screws which is normal....If the front wheels appear a little further apart on the ground then the top then your axles you should be good. The bottom links should be longer then the uppers and mixing them up would do this.
Your caster angle is leaned forward because your suspension is deweighted, springs are tightened down, but more importantly your top links aren't tightened all the way. My kit and partner's RTR are both leaned back a hair. I don't notice any toe out but the torque twist is a bit chaotic....I have 3 sets of shocks ordered to double the back with 120mm travel all around.
thanks for comment...tried shortening front upper links to max (and extending lower links as well)...just approaching zero caster results in severe upward drive shaft angle...i dont get it :(
im sorry, i meant to say downward drive shaft angle...either way, severe drive shaft angles bind and quickly wear out u-joints as we all know haha...drive on!
Yeah that drive should enter the diff horizontally. Mind boggling! It even looks like the axle assembly is done right. Your steer servo isn't tipped back like it should be either. I'd measure the linkage to make sure they didn't get mixed up. It would be easy to do.
thanks for the comment! ...the result of lengthening (unscrewing) the lower links was that one came apart...not enough thread left to hold...the one-piece alloy links were a great upgrade and caster looks to be about zero...check out 'Ryft Springs' vid...peace out and drive on!

thanks for comment!...these are sold as upgrade rear springs for certain Traxxas chassis'..(see vid 'Ryft Springs')..got 'em from Hot-Racing.com
meant to say you get 3 PAIRS of springs (6 total) not just 3 haha -2HatMatt

You just lengthen the front lower links by turning the links clockwise and it will slowly get longer improving the caster

You must not understand what it is designed for
thanks for the comment! GSS often does not follow the rules...and this config KILLS HILLS!...peace out and drive on!
