prolly just spent the last 2 hours tweeking them just so I could have a clean launch that didnt pull either way and turned equally each way. This was after a differential, idle gear, top gear and bearing replacement in the full car.

I haven't exactly been good about keeping track of caster blocks and just have them tossed in together and I did the same for rear blocks and mounts.

Is there a good way for me to determine what the values are?

For rear blocks, I have some that...

when i have a bunch of caster block or arm mounts to decipher, I don't worry about measuring them. I just compare them to one another.

pretty much for rc10 there are only a few options.

I'm replacing the stock turnbuckles with a new set, RC10 Graphite.

I assembled them exactly as the manual said to. The car keeps spinning around in circles, cant keep it straight.

The front camber looks way off.

measured from center of ball...

I got this camber/toe gauge a while back in a lot from craigslist. it didn’t come with any instructions and I’m a bit puzzled on just how it works. If anyone has used one of these before or would know where I could find a manual, I would really...

Perfect! Thank you very much, I guess im only missing two bushings but I think the two I have will get the job done. I diddnt realize this came out when the xx was around. Probably why I couldn't find any info about it when I googled it :roll:...

I tried the search feature, but I guess I was typing in the correct wording. I have a vintage gold tub running stock. 30* casters and I'd like to try out some 25* but can't seem to find any. I know I can use B4 blocks but which ones will give me 25*...

Just going through the bits for my car and noticed these are different.

double click test mouse

Is this the difference between 15 and 30 degree? They look the same angle, but different heights.
If so, which is which?

Last post

but it's an injection molded part. :?:
Perhaps they come out of the mold as blanks, then the pin hole is added to establish the different caster angles?
Anyway, I've not seen this before.

Hello all,
It seems to be generally agreed that the long-arm Rc10 does best with 25 degrees of caster. Unfortunately, the 25 degree caster blocks are discontinued and hard to find. There's currrently one set on ebay, $30 shipped. Ouch.
What's the...

Last post

Nobody?
Maybe I'll just order the 30d blocks and see how they work for me.
Edit: Is there any way to get proper track with b4 casters and JC Racing wheels, or will I need new wheels?
I may just go ahead and try the Custom Works caster blocks....

HI!... This is my CASTER Fusion EX-1.5R Pro. I've basically set it up for top speed runs and parking lot running.

Last post

The shrink wrap on the driveshafts? Is that to keep dirt out of the end couplings? And then post these images on RCTech, they would enjoy them too.

HI!... Yes to keep dirt out.
