S chassis adjusted to obtain the desired ride height
Spring preload will be increased.
Center Shorten the limiter strap(s) to match the ride height of the front and rear and obtain
the desired amount of weight transfer. New holes can be punched in rubber limiter
straps. A shorter nylon limiter strap (P/ N 4860562 00) is available for the vehicles
with the strap and bolt style.
On vehicles with HPG T/A shocks the threaded adjusters can be loosened to reduce
the amount of spring preload. If less preload is desired or on vehicles with cam
adjusters, shorter springs may be used to reduce excessive spring preload.

TRACK GUIDES

Additional taller track guides (P/ N 4860616 00) should be installed when oval racing with a
heavily studded track. These taller guides help prevent derailing without having to overly tighten
the track. When in a turn, the side loads on the guides are extremely high and it is advantageous to
reduce the load per guide by adding more of the guides.
All of the flat cleats should be removed from the right side of the track and replaced with guide
cleats. (See drawing. )

height guide clips.
For ice Iemans type racing where left and right hand corners are encounted, extra guides should
also be installed on the left side of the track.
