I gotta say since changing out to stock wraith axles/chubs/knuckles this car has been perfect, reminds me of my old AX10 version only better! I've added more weight with the Blue Monkey weights tuning rings and have been extremely happy. So far we've had three comps to our new season and I've taken 2nd and back to back 1st place finishes. Here's a few pics from our last comp... |

| Re: cboggs' 5th D Sucker Punch Not really...... Its really not un common for STD. knuckles and C's to push... My Shafty did it way back in 2008 My berg did it before i went 8deg. My scaler did it before i went 8deg... Proper Parts = Proper steering.......... Last edited by roksloski; 08-23-2016 at 09:00 PM. |

Oh, and BTW Chris, I have non zero ackerman arms if you wanted to ever go back to my knuckles. I hated the way they worked but as we know, everybody has different tastes.

I run a few degrees toe out so I have faux ackerman. When it comes to steering ackerman is the only functional difference between dlux knuckles and standard stuff. That has to be the reason in my mind. Unless there is something else such as a gearing offset change in the axles? |

I like 1 deg toe out on non acker. but ima have to revert back to 0 deg once I get my secret out.

From everything Ive read about ackerman my understanding is we are wrong on our thinking of what zero ackerman is. I agree its gotta be an ackerman difference between the hub/knuckles. Having the kingpin and steering arm mount aligned with each other isn't what makes it zero though. BTA and FTA make alter what actual zero is from my non engineering understanding. Look at the pictures in section 6 FTA vs BTA https://sweetmfg.biz/uploads/files/t...steering-4.pdf Im thinking the non zero arms would probably feel better | ||

Good discussion trying to figure out what was happening, could be the ackerman as that is really the only difference between the two running in the 8* mode. All I know right now is I'm back to winning again and I'm happy with how the rig is performing. |
