rear rc10 89' suspension

Question- do the wheels kind of turn toward eachother in the rear suspension on the graphite model. I am not sure which way the peice that holds the arms on goes. Do the car wheels slant towards eachother? \----/

Yes, they all do. It's called toe-in.

the tires should point in, and toward the front, if the pointing in is toward the rear, it called toe out

if you want to be as fast, run with zero toe.

lol, no way to make toe 0 on this car. Lol before i read ur responses, an hour after i posted this question, i looked at the bottom of the pieces and the baztards are labled r and l (right and left)- i feel so stupid!

BTW, look at my home made skid plate thread in general- my gramps and i made it by ourselves.

well, if your arm mounts are 1.5 degrees (toe in), and you have 1.5 degree hub carriers (the left one has an L on it, the right is plain), put the left on the right, right on the left, and now you have zero degree toe.

if you plan on doing any oval racing you can put 0* on one side and 1.5* on the other side. the toe in your left rear effects how much the car turns coming off the turn, the more toe in the more it turns. The right effects turn in and steering through the center. More toe in makes the car turn less, take toe out it steers more. Also more toe in on both sides will give the car the feeling of more forward bite, and stability.
