Looking for some input from members with the above-named suspension mods, particularly if you have these on an RC.

I haven't touched this stuff since I had the axle changed out, and the wheel hop is absolutely violent. Also, I'll want a good starting point to work from when at the track (...soon!).

Thanks in advance!
 
Light preload on the caltracs and 10F/8R should be a good start for the street. Spring clamps will definitely help the wheelhop also.

on the cal tracs just run them down to the spring and then tighten them 1 full round and you should be ok.

Dom was messing with them in Sacramento this past weekend... might wanna PM him.
 
Got my QA1's set at 12F, 6R and the Caltracs at 2 1/4 turns. This is on a QC.
 
I have mine 1 1/2 turns after they contact the spring. No wheel hop, no rattling on the street and a reasonable 60' time.
 
My Caltracs are set at 19 flats...three full rotations plus one flat.
 
There are six flats on the head of the adjusting bolt head...one rotation would be six flats.
 
Asian measurement...more precise than half a turn or a quarter turn...

You guys are pretty sharp...the humor here is getting to me...or maybe it is the Corona.
