The anti-squat is changed via a plate sitting behind the spurgear.

The set-up stations used to be sold through the Pred forum.

That's the puppy, I actually bought an on-road (spit) one and set the guy some measurements so he could make the off-road size pred one.

He kindly sent me a free wider top plate in return!

Excellent service.

Regarding the king pin hight, it cant be changed i dont beleive, but if somone would like to correct this then fine.

Its awkward to say off hand, about the anti squat, just give me a min.. LOL obviously with it being new still having a good look round on curtain things but ill get back to you on that one.

ill get some pictures posted up on the areas youve said as soon as everything is finished off, not long till its all ready mate .

Garry

Carl,

As Peter said the anti squat is ajusted from behind the spur gear there is a inner pivot block that can be risen or lowerd to give anti squat levels i beleve, Ive set mine kit standard until i need to change it.

Depending on the weather mate, As you know wet sticky muddy crap isnt the best for setting a new car up. I cant see me racing Batley after talking to Dad about it, Brand new car plus snow, rain or thick mud isnt a good idea LOL...

Looks like ill be racing York on saturday night instead get a good feel of the car indoor with these new parts on and have a little play with some set-ups there.

Garry

Looks very good to me Gary, I ran a pred at the end of last year if I had a bit more time and the means to purchase parts off the internet I would still be running the car now fast is not the word for the car. This one will be ten times better than the one I hade as it was a x10ish, so I hope you go well with it.
