I'm looking to get a KF but have a bunch of shorty packs I have allotted for my current 2wd; I see that the KF has a shorty "option".
What's that all about?

Kit-spec is for saddles, you need the optional conversion kit to use shorties.

you get a different belt and another tensioner allowing you to put the shorty under the belt i believe.

I recently bought the shorty lipo conversion pack but have yet to fit it.
What can I expect it to do to change the handling?

has anyone got any tips for understeer? Ran out the cougar on damp astro, as soon as i put the throttle on the back end would fly out and spin. Any tips????

What tyres and set up? It doesn't sound like under steer but rear traction issue or oversteer. Ball diff, high inertia side gears, rear shocks mounted on the rear of the wishbones and the rear shocks all the way in on top mounting all help with rear traction on wet astro.

it sounds like a diff setting, are you just going in a straight line applying the throttle and the rear comes round.
the diff is driving both wheels and not allowing any difference in rotation between either of the rear wheels because it is acting like a solid axle due to the drag of the oil on the gears. Use thinner oil or remove two of the gears is a solution also having a ball diff for low grip is an option, check out the Schumacher set up section for the KF in damp conditions where a ball diff was the option. |

cheers for the advice. Its running stock kit set up, with 12500 diff oil in it. Its got ballistic greens mini spikes rear and d boots block pass fronts. Essentially when i was going around a corner if i used too much throttle, the back end would spin out.
Ill lower the diff oil to 10,000 and move the shocks to the rear. Hopefully that should run abit better Just a question, ive had alook at the schumacher set up sheets and says your need the alloy top blocks for the rear in order to mount the suspension at the back? I assume because it doesnt have any holes on the normal ones. Anyone got any picks? |

Hi Max,
The thinner the oil in the diff the better, I tried 1300 but was a bit thin, I've now gone with 3000 and it's good. Come and see us on Thursday as some of at the club are running the standard top block but have made spacers so they can move the shocks to the rear, although I have the alloy mount There are also a few other things to do, 350 oil in the rear shocks and drill the pistons to 1.65mm, rear ball studs add 3mm overall shim. As I say come and see me, James, stu etc and well help you out. Cheers, Duncan SHRCCC Quote:

Ran the KF for the first time at Silverstone on Saturday. What a car, very very nice. Just a shame I wasn't very good, but to all at Schumacher
I ran 15k at Silverstone, but will drop that to prob 10000 and get another gear diff. Although I seem to have a few... 2 x in K1 10/7k, 2 x ball diffs spare. I'm also interested to just run the car with a ball diff and see how that feels. Looking forward to trying it at TORCH and other tracks in the future. Will post some pictures at some point. |
