TLR 234007 Spindles or lack of!
 
A lot of high grip setups seem to flip the bell crank and run these spindles from the 22 2.0. Problem is I can’t find these in stock anywhere! Have I any other options to get the same setup?

These spindles were discontinued at the start of 2015 which is why your struggling to find any.

Thanks, seems a bit nuts that setups from team drivers are using something we can no longer buy! Feeling a bit disappointed in TLR, I am the only one running a 22 at my club and setup sheets use parts I can’t get! Are any of the kit Ackermann setting similar do you know?

I know it's the USA but amainhobbies have them in stock.

Personally I didn't think there was a massive difference between the 234007 spindle and the no.3 ackermann setting from the kit when the bell cranks are flipped.

I tried the 22 2.0 spindles - took them off after less than 1 meeting. Car lacked lock and just didn’t feel that nice to drive. Definitely not required in my opinion and I race on eos carpet and on high grip Astro tracks

Thanks, I will try that. I am running normal rack and no2 setting and want to try and liven it up a bit

If you’re running the kit setting of 4mm axle trail, you could also try 3mm or even 2mm instead, this will make the initial turn-in a fair bit more aggressive! Worth a go, I generally run 3mm, or 2mm in the wet when I want as much steering as possible from the car

Cheers, I am running 4mm so will try that :)

Yer you can’t get full lock properly and snap city if you have an off because you have to dremel bits off.
