Hi,

No, no other parts. But for the front the spring or the oil is a little too hard for the rustler. The rear are really good.

and what are the spring rates you used on the shocks front and rear?

I seem to see green for the front wich is 3.5 rate and blue for the rear wich is 5.9, is this correct?

you told me the front was a bit to hard still...so what would you recommend me? I also wich to use the Rustler for onroad racing only :)

For the front, I'm using the white spring. I think I have too change oil and make bigger hole in the piston.

I have a question about the suspension arms

are they the extended version front and rear?


if yess, what kind of turnbuckles did you use (toe and camber) did you use the stock ones or did you get ones from lunsford or did you use the one from a Jato?
because normally the stock normal lenght turnbuckles are to short for the extended FLM arms...

thx,
Erik

what kind of rear arm mounts did you use, 1° or 4°?
