The arm length is added between the most outer shock location and the hub which is good as the suspension shock geometry will stay the same as you change arms

When fitting these rear arms, did people need to use some spacers in front of the arm.

I run +1 bmax4 arms on mine. Shimmed drive shaft in toward the outdrive as much as possible (bmax2 shafts)

Cars fantastic like this for me. Its actually the same width as a kf at the rear in this config.

Not axles, just the dog bone.

Yes you can.

I tried my bmax4-3 with the YZ2 rear bits, and put it back to the B4-008R1's.
Felt too loose at rear on the new sandy Batley astro.

Brilliant

But we all like to tinker

That said, my yz2 has been superb, everywhere I've run it. Straight from box (with a little expert adjustment from Neil Lewis)

Out of the box the car runs brilliant. With a bit of adjustments you can drive it very fast around the track.

Seeing as pretty much the whole team have swapped wishbones now, there must be something in it... so if you have the parts already I don't see the harm in trying it..

Finally got some shafts B2-010RB

So i need to fit these with B4-008R yea?

I gather from comments this stabilises rear end etc and also would be better in low grip, aswell as helping drive in high grip.

So

If i run yz2 rear arms and shafts on the bmax-4iii does this reduce rear grip? Just have not run car and want to know best setups for best conditions. I noticed neil said if its sandy and loose its better stock arms and bones.

Thanks
