Hi Folks.
No doubt a few of you will have read my threads already.

Finally my h4e is looking sweet and in just over a week will have her first race meeting.

As always it will be indoor polished wooden floor = no grip!

I've been told 3000CST diff oil (solid spool at front)
I'm running yellow mini pins on 9mm offsets

Not sure on what to set camber and caster etc at so any advice on that would be great.

Im also unsure about anti roll bars. The adjustment on these seems to be the length of the ball studs apart on the grub screw that provides the adjustment up or down.

On a polished wooden floor should I even run them or remove them???

The kit default says 2mm betwen the ball studs (exposed rod) which means the square root of bugger all to me.

Anybody else running and h4e on a polished wooden floor or anybody to give me initial set up advice?

Sorry for so many questions but this is the most helpful forum Ive even been on!

Cheers.

Rob.

I think id start with kit spacers, 1.5 deg camber all round, 0 front toe, 5mm droop all round, 5mm front rideheight, 5.2mm rear, id probably put the thinnest rollbars on or remove them all together. shocks in middle holes.

run it and see how it goes

Thanks for the setup tips.
When you say kit spacers...I assume you mean under the ballstuds???
Sorry - its the first time ive had a decent car to set up.
My TT02s were sadly lacking and Im learning as I go...

Thanks.

Rob.
