Good stuff! Caster blocks even! Don't see those much! Can you please shoot another photo with the entire instruction text visible! -Brian

I made a set of Kydex wedges to serve that purpose on my runner. That is a un-sung modification that really changes handling. Very good to play with if you are into the srb. Technically, I've convinced myself that little reduction in caster is best for most running, tilting the front end top-forward, so the suspension action is a hair closer to vertical than stock. Technically loose a little steering but in reality takes some bump steer and a lot of the bounce out. The front wheels spend more time on the ground, which then helps steering and control on a lot of surfaces, IMO. (My experience is on hard US-Open type golf coarse grass).

I have seen people using the RC12E radio plate to replace the SRB radio box, it worked well :D
