Default YZ2 Rear Toe

Anybody tried anything other than kit? As some of you may know i have to run Venoms on the rear, on carpet, which now and then can be a headache,was wondering if increasing rear toe in a tad may be a worthwhile effort to lock it in a bit more? Thoughts?

I run max rear toe (3.5deg) in on lower traction tracks.

You can muck about with the inserts and get 4 degrees toe by using some of the rear hanger inserts in the front rear hangers. Don't use the ones that are too small, they're for the 4wd, apparently.

3.5 is max on kit. 4/4.5 is only achievable with 0.5deg or 1deg rear hubs.

You CAN get more than 3.5 deg by not using the arrow front inserts and by using another insert that is the same hole height as the arrow but has the hole offset to the side (i can't remember which one it is as i havent got my car infront of me but its obvious which is the right one).

We have run the YZ2 this way all the time outdoors and it seems ok on lower grip surfaces

Yeah 3.5 is max if you follow the yokomo guidelines. more is possible if you workout the RF inserts yourself to gain more, remembering of course the pin high or pin low position and antisquat. I guess a cribsheet would be useful, modifying the yokomo original:

This chart is doe bmax4iii, but YZ2 rear uses the same.

Neil is right guys, with the stock hangers and inserts, without adding toe on the hubs 3.5 is max achievable
