I need to get some measurements and put up here as requested. It's been so damn hot I've not done much. My Dremel died and I stopped where I was at. Need to save some cash to change some things up. There will be updates coming...

So far my first test showed I need some weight and needed to adjust the rear pinion angle. I've not got the weight yet, so no new test info.

I ordered some Bluemonkey knuckle weights with extra weights today. Working on sanding sidewalls and I've already trimmed up the tread blocks. I've got to fix the corded dremel, it's taking forever sanding these damn things...

Look at this thread.....

It is faster to use grinder with flap disc or sanding disc. Use the dremel to do the finer details. It is a messy job.

Pic makes your width look like its about 11 1/2. I would try to slim that closer to 11, because it will give you a little more room for squeezing between cones.

The wheelbase looks a little short, you want as close to 12.5 (without going over) fully compressed. Otherwise its looking good
