What are we doing for knuckle weights on these? Are they compatible with the vanquish ones?

They have tapped holes on the ends of the knuckles, should be easy to attach weights to.

OK so I'm new to all of this. What is the advantage to the 8° C-Hubs and knuckles? And which way do they lean?

And... Do I need to add weights?

Cheers eh,

Todd

the lower screw on the knuckle/hub is farther outboard but not angled to increase camber
the line drawn between the top screw and the bottom screw should fall under the centerline of the tire
this is called the scrub angle look that up haha


the xr-10s came with them stock

need weight?

what a question ....

the lower the center of gravity the less the vehicle tends to flip over.
more weight is needed up front on certain terrains and in others not as much.
some tires need more weiight to get optimal traction.
the weights basically move the center of gravity forward and down.
want to avoid rolling weight - that reduces power to the tires, hanging weight is ok.

if you are not confused yet you are a better man than i hahahaah

hi eric
i tried to order up a couple of sets but i could not find them at the rc4wd site

maybe rckcrwlr can shed some light on this (hint hint)
Bully 2 8 Degree C-Hubs (Z-S1019)
Bully 2 8 Degree Knuckles (Z-S1013)


how much would you give for the "junky non 8*" stock ones?
or maybe trade for some of you "dlux" products?

I'm only messing with you...all is good.

If I know something, I will tell you. Remember guys, I don't "work" for RC4WD...just their Team Manager so when it comes to the business operations, I am not in the know.
