View Full Version : Is the x6 squared set up good for an x6 ?

Just finally bought the 4 gear set for my original x6 and have being giving it a spruce up with some losi axles too as per the x6 squared set up from the x factory website.
I don't have the E-speed hangers so am unsure as to the rear camber link setup.
I've gone for the outer hole on the chassis and the outermost hole on the wheel hub, is this right ? There seems to be very little camber change now over the suspension range.
Cheers

Andy' that's probably the best compromise, maybe try middle hole on the hub, but the E Speed hangers really make it a lot better. Are you using Lipo as if so you'll need some lead or something heavy.

Hi Dan.

Cheers for the reply, what do the e-speed hangers do ? I know they move the camber link out a bit, but what's the actual result on the handling of the car and why ?

Cheers. Andy.

By running the E speed hangers you shorten the rear link which takes away some of the traction the car generates! (Which is loads:)) This helps you get on the power through the corner with out it just pushing straight on so much.

This sounds like it's too good to be true but they give you more on power steering but without unsettling the rear end. If you try them back to back you'll see what I mean ;) You'll just be faster with them on, I never ever consider taking them off, I run them high most of the time but low if I need more power on steering.

It moves the link out and even in the high position the ball will be lower than the std position with no washers in.
