E speed camber links

losichris · #1 14-09-2011

Just recieved my e speed camber link extenders.
Quite annoyed that theres no screws to mount them, nor any instructions as to what screws will fit.
Does anyone know what size screw fits, and also what size turnbuckle is recommended as ive been running the standard longer ones??

Cheers
Chris

Sorry you are annoyed. Not our intention.

All of our cars use 4-40 U.S. hardware, and a 3/8" screw, the most common size, will do nicely cap head or button head. Best use two on each hanger.

You can put the hanger on up or down for tuning, and can add/subtract washers between the hanger & bulkhead too. I think Ellis uses 1 3/8" turnbuckles with Losi ball cups. Turnbuckle length will depend on which hole you usually run in the hub and which ball cups you use.

Many drivers who live in metric places get the A 101 Box 'O Bolts, a great selection of every popular size and type of 4-40 hardware. Cap heads, flat heads, button heads, different amounts of almost every length, along with nuts, mini nuts, lock nuts, and washers. Plus the little 2-56 screws for AE hinge pins. All in a great little box with dividers for 18 compartments! And guess how many different fasteners are in the assortment...

All model shops doing business with X Factory U.K. have the Box 'O Bolts or can get it quickly. A great item to have no matter what U.S. car you have.

I'm no expert but i was told by better lads than me at our club to run them down in the wet and up in the dry, there's probably other reasons aswell but as i said i'm not the best and can't understand all the technical stuff

For more detail there are previous threads but higher comparred to no hangers is more on power steering with for me no real loss/downside anywhere, hangers down is more on power steering again but potentially with some reduction in traction/stability.

I run mine up 90% of the time, and have not, not used them since they came out.
