Chassis Tuning

Ride Height

The ride height is set using preload
spacers between the top of the shock
1mm
and the top of the suspension springs.
These plastic clips are included in the
kit in 1mm, 3mm and 7mm versions.
3mm
Raising the ride height not only gives
you greater ground clearance when
running on more uneven surfaces but
it can also affect the chassis balance
of the car. Experiment by raising the
7mm
height of the front and rear at the
same time or independently and see
how it affects the handling of your car.

Ride Height
The camber links are the arms that link the top of hubs to the chassis. The
length can be adjusted to alter the camber of the front and rear wheels.
The adjustments and their effects are listed below:
Length Characteristic
Front Shorter

Rear Shorter

The steering arm links are the connection between the front hubs and
the steering mechanism in the chassis. The length of these can adjust the
front toe-in/-out.
Adjusting the toe can create either toe-in, which is where the wheels point
inwards towards a centreline in front of the vehicle, or toe-out where the
wheels point towards a centreline behind the vehicle. The effect of these
adjustments is below:

The camber links are the arms that link the top of hubs to the
chassis. The length can be adjusted to alter the camber of the front
and rear wheels.
The adjustments and their effects are listed below:
Position
Inner
Outer
The shock mounting position is where the bottom of the shock
mounts to the lower wishbone of the suspension.
Adjusting the angle of the shock can change the way the
suspension reacts to bumps and also cornering forces.
The effect of these adjustments is below:
Angle
Inner position Softer damping, better over bumps, slower response,
Outer postion Stiffer damping, better on smooth surfaces, faster re-

Ride Height
More negative camber, more stability, smoother
steering, slower response.
Less negative camber, more direct steering, quicker
response.
More negative camber, less forward traction, smoother
cornering, use for high grip surfaces.
Less negative camber, more forward traction, less
smooth cornering, good for low grip surfaces.
Characteristic
Zero toe, standard setting, neutral handling.
Toe-Out, increasing cornering abilty, less stability on straights.
Toe-In, more stability on straights.
Characteristic
Standard position, Less chassis roll, lower overall grip,
quicker to respond to inputs.
(Adjust camber link turbuckle to return camber to correct
angle) More chassis roll, more overall grip, slower to
respond to inputs.
Characteristic
more overall grip.
sponse, slightly less grip.
