Default New to the b44.3 platform

Hi folks new the the world of the b44.3...

I am running my kit with the exception off heavier diff oil
12k front and rear with 125k centre...

But does someone know a good point to start with the front toe in/out... ie inner turnbuckle size as I don't have a setup tool for this yet...

Also any good modifications that maybe required


Thanks

12K rear sounds a lot to me, my son runs 10K front and 5K rear with 125 centre. No toe in or out, dead straight with front and real links at kit setting. I recommend the JConcepts alloy steering option and RPM front arms.

My son had been struggling with front steering turnbuckles popping off so we have modified them by using the B5M ball studs and ball ends. You need to retap the nuts to M3 on the steering arms.

If you are running on high grip you should try the slipper rather than the gear diff or try a very thick oil (1 million wt) in the gear diff.

HTH

Don't go crazy with diff oil 10k front 7k rear 100k centre we use 7 and 5 pretty much every where 10/7 is a good starting point


As for slipper if you have way too much rotation then maybe you could just put 200/300 in centre any more is pretty pointless

Get the alu centre diff cap stop it leaking and do the b5 ball stuf conversation
