Since I opened my store in 2004, I have earned the respect of a great deal of people in this community because I have always respected others, I don't step on toes, I'm honest, and I don't play games. All members off RCC and the rock crawling community can take pride in shopping at TheCrawlerStore and TCScrawlers, knowing that we are here to stay, that we are well respected, and that we earned that respect and popularity the honest way.

Thank you to all of you that support The Crawler Store!

x2 You have earned the respect of your customers and even a few vendors that I know of. Kevin your a great guy and keep up the good work.

Mocking up my set-up in anticipation of these being released. What is the degree of tilt on these bad boys?

Hi,

I am also waiting for these parts, but I have some questions about the clocking:

Do you have to install your axle so that the diff-input is rotated 15° upwards and the knuckles stand vertical or (what I would do) mount the axle so that the diff input is horizontal an the knuckles are rotated a bit. The steering angle of many buggys are like this also, so I thought this could be how to use them.

Thanks for helping me understand this,

Cheers Pete

Hello Pete. You can install these and modify your pinion angle (tilt of your axle) however you wish to achieve maximum performance.

Well kevin has let me test a set of clocked Cs.I've been beating on them for the last 3 days,they're tuff enough.The 15 degree is just right for my rig,my drive line is straight now and not beating on the rocks anymore.knuckles are vertical,the notch in the Cs gave me more sterring and brought my sterring links up a little too.I'm very happy with them.Can't wait to get some for my sons rig.Thanks kevin for letting me test these for you.

Any chance you can manufacture these so they have bearings as well. :-(

Kevin I'm putting in my order now for both of my 2.2 trucks.
Oh and if you need someone to test them for you, I'm your
man! I know these will be on back order because you won't
be able to keep them in stock. Great Item!!!

And this past weekend I did my truck and the g.f. wanted them as well.After all that grinding to maximize steering I will now have to do it again.I so wish you came out with these a little sooner so I could have saved some time

Sorry, no plans to incorporate bearings into the design. We'll also be tweaking the design a little bit to get less binding. We had a very slight misalignment on them and need to take care of this so you guys get the best product possible. So another round of prototypes to come before full manufacturing.

Yes that is the best part in my oppionion. Just bolt these things up and your CVD's are still good to go, no further mod to you brand new parts.

You guys will not be disappointed in these things. Kevin is a perfectionist and just wants to make sure that once these are released they are perfect.

They will be a great addition to make any TLT better.
