To light on the rear?

[xkill]

So, my question is:
Is there such thing as having the rear to light on a set of bully axles? (or any axles by that matter...)

I have both cast axles but i should be going to a LW rear soon
The plan is to machine the case and the tubes of the LW to put them on a diet as much as possible, after that run it with plastic rear wheels and some aluminum in the front.

I'm running an Havoc chassis with torsion on the front.

Too light? It really depends on the front weight, your terrain and how you like the car to handle.

Yes, you can mess up the balance front/rear by making the rear light and not doing something to the front.

Ran a set of Plastic wheels on the rear before, didn't turn out so well. Thing flopped over forward alot.
I did add weight into them specifically to match my other rears since I had too many tires and not enough wheels. Now I"ve got Sedonas, Rovers and BC's, for both rigs my girl and I run. Weight bias is important, the rear still needs traction, but you don't want to summersalt off a 5" ledge either.
You can find that "majic" weight by adding weight onto the axle tube (use some stick on weights and zip ties) then add the weights into the wheel when you're ready.

Thanks for the advices.

I guess I'll stay with the plan. Make the axle as light as possible and play with the weight bias later

I am running a LW rear and cast front, seems very balanced with my SLW .7's. Remember that you will also have weight added forward by the servo/steering setup. Every bit counts and running some Lightweight rear alum wheels will probably give you a good "base" to start tuning.
