RC10T3 and RC10T4 rear suspension arm width

Post by Typpo »

The T3 rear suspension arms are much wider at the hinge pin side than the T4 rear suspension arms. Why did kits from the T4 forward become narrower at the hinge pin mount?

Change between the B2/B3 and B4 basic design, maybe?

No expert... :oops:

Arm mounts changed from a mount that went inside the arm on the T3 to mounts that went outside (in front and behind) the arm on the T4.

Thank you for the additional information. Did the durability change with the outer arm mounting?
