Default 2wd trf 501x

Rather than have the spare car sat around PLUS i needed to rob the diff out of it and PLUS i dont have a 2wd at the mo i converted it to a 2wd, aint got a clue how it is going to perform so i mite run it 20 turn at york on saturday to test it then maybe see about losing the alloy diff housing at the front.

I don't think that will handle too well since it was designed to be a 4WD. Good luck though.

If you can, try to increase front kick-up.

No, but I hate lack of steering even more.

Besides : there's no such thing as oversteering, only a lack of rear grip.

serious now : Just compare the amount of kickup (and overall caster) between a 2wd buggy and a 4wd buggy. It makes perfect sence as you have no more pull of your front wheels in a corner.
