Kyosho Lazer ZX project

Another option is to use shorter CVD's. There's quite a variety of Lazer CVD sizes available; 62.5, 65, 68, 73 and even longer, I think.

Yes, but the MIP shiny CVDs are so shiny!

There is some dogbone plunge from full droop to full compression, so my concern with changing the dogbone length is that they may pop out at full droop.

I found a set of NIP rear hub carriers on eBay for $16 shipped. Not too bad for a vintage part. I'll try that out first and take it from there.

Another idea is to use your longer CVD's, but go with a narrower bearing on the inside of the hub. I think 4mm are standard, try a 3mm thick bearing, that'll give the CVD 1mm more space. And at about a buck a pop (or less), that would be the cheapest solution, if 1mm extra room is all you're looking for.

That's a nice idea. I'll see what I have. Already ordered the hubs, though, so I'll start with those first.

Post a picture of your rear end (LOL) so we can see the camber link locations. They sound to short to me.-J

Oh it's certainly not that. I think it's the offset from the hubs, but I will find out for sure when the stock hubs come in.

Haven't had time to make it. I've been spending all week getting ready for a big race this Sunday, and I spent the week before that cleaning/restoring a YZ10. This will be a busy weekend, but I will try to get to it next week sometime.
