Wheelbase difference between RPM rear arms and AE arms

Post by cautrell05 »

The later AE arms for the 10T, GT and T2 have the spacer for adjusting the wheelbase. The early AE white arms and the RPM arms dont. My question is lined up next to each other is Does the RPM arms line up with the short or long position or are they in the middle? Thanks

What spacer are you referring to? the fore/aft space on the hub side? If so, then it is the same overall as the standard rc10 or 10t wheelbase, because you used to adjust via the toe blocks- the same adjustment is now on the hub side, in smaller increments-

The spacer on the outer hingepin is what I am refering to. I know it doesent change toe, just the wheelbase. What im asking is, if I went from the rpm arms to the ae arms, would the front or rear position be the same as the rpm arm as far as wheelbase goes.

Kinda related, is there any rear arm mounts available other than ebay? I was thinking every number I could find was discontinued through tower.

The RPM arm position would be dead center of the "adjustment" of the AE arm- and other than the BST here, and ebay that's it really for the blocks
