INSTALLING UPPER AND LOWER PIVOT BALLS

Before popping in the #8417 pivot balls, make sure

there are no burrs inside the pivot ball holes.

Pop the #8417 pivot balls into the suspension arms as

shown. Make sure that the shoulders of the pivot balls

in the lower suspension arms are facing upward and

the pivot balls in the upper arm are facing downward

as shown. Orient ball to the rounded side of the upper

arm as shown.

Now assemble the right side.

INTRODUCTION

Associated's hugely popular RC10L series Dynamic Strut front

suspension kit includes adjustments for caster, camber, toe in

and toe out, and other tuning tricks, all explained in detail in the

tuning tips section following the assembly instructions.

HOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE ORGANIZED

The line drawings indicate which parts you'll need to take out

of the bag for that step. A "1:1" indicates that part is drawn

actual size. You can place your part on top to make sure you

have the right part.

We put numbers within black circles to help you link the text

instructions with the drawing.

The instructions in each step are ordered in the order you

complete them, so read the words AND follow the pictures.

When we refer to the left and right sides of the car, we are

referring to the river's point of view from inside the car.

UPPER ARM TO THE SUSPENSION MOUNT

Assemble the upper arm assembly to the suspension mount as

shown, using the #8413 hinge pin and #8413 shims.

FINAL FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY

Assemble the #8421 steering block as shown using parts

#3213, 6299, 4448, 4187, and 4449. Install the ball end into the

rear hole.

Place one #6299 E-clip on the bottom of the #8423 kingpin then

slide the #8429 spring over.

Slide the #8423 kingpin completely through the bottom of the

suspension arm and up through the steering block.

Place one #8425 shim on top of the #8421 steering block.

Now push the upper arm over the kingpin. Place four #8425

shims over the kingpin and secure with a #6299 E-clip.

Do the other side.

MOUNTING THE SERVO

Secure the servo to the

#8435 blocks with four

#4145 screws and four

#7337 #4 washers.

DRILL SERVO SAVER

Use your #34 or 3/32" drill

bit to carefully drill the two

mounting holes for the

#4448 ball ends.

ASSEMBLING THE

SERVO SAVER

Thread two #4448 ball ends

into the front side of the

#8445 servo saver. Secure

the ball ends with the

#4449 locknuts.

Try the three #8445

adapters on the servo until

you find one that fits. Push

that adapter into the servo

saver.

MOUNTING THE SERVO ASSEMBLY

Mount the servo saver to the servo with

the #3760 screw.

Note:

If you have a

metal gear servo, use the stock

mounting screw.

If necessary, drill the chassis holes for

your servo mounting blocks with a drill

bit. We strongly recommend using 82

deg. countersink (or the tip of a 1/4" drill

bit).

Mount the servo mounting blocks to the

chassis with two #6292 screws. If you

have more than one set of holes, use

the forward holes.

STEERING LINKAGE

Install the plastic ball cups onto the steering turnbuckles. The

dimension from ball cup to ball cup differs between 1:10 kits.

Refer to your manual for the correct dimension.

Snap one ball cup onto the ball end on the servo saver. Snap

the opposite end on as shown. Install both turnbuckles.

When you are adjusting your turnbuckles, always make sure

that the servo saver is pointing straight down.

TUNING & SETUP TIPS

0°mount, 0°mount, 0°mount,

0°caster 2°caster 4°caster

2 shims forward 1 shim each side 2 shims to rear

This section explains the adjustments possible to

tune your front end for different track conditions.

CASTER describes the angle of the kingpin

when looked at from the side of the car. As an ex-

ample, 0°of caster puts the kingpin in a vertical

line. Positive caster means the kingpin leans rear-

ward at the top. Increasing the positive caster on

your car will slightly increase the steering turning

into a corner and slightly decrease steering com-

ing out of the corner. Reducing the positive caster

will decrease the amount of steering you have go-

ing into a corner and increase the amount of steer-

ing you have in the middle of the corner and exiting

the same corner.

Your car has adjustable caster in increments

of 2°. With the 0°upper arm mounts you can have

settings of 0°, 2°, and 4°of positive caster as shown.

You change the caster by placement of the PTFE

caster shims on either side of the upper arm mount.

The three drawings below show the locations of

the caster shims and what the resulting caster set-

tings will be.

For greater amount of caster than moving the

upper arm caster shims, you can add the #4127

REAR

caster spacers under the suspension arms. They

come in 2°increments. Be aware that adding these

caster shim spacers will change your ride height.

#4127 shims

(optional)

FRONT SUSPENSION SPRINGS are available in various wire

sizes as listed at right. Changing springs will increase or decrease steering. In

general a softer spring (smaller wire diameter) will add steering and a harder

spring (larger wire diameter) will decrease steering. Oval racing will nor-

mally require a harder spring than road course racing.

CAMBER is a word describing the angle at

which the tire and wheel rides relative to the ground

when looked at from the front or back. This is one

of the most important adjustments on the car.Nega-

tive camber means that the tire leans inward at the

top, putting it closer to the centerline of the car

than the bottom of the tire. Positive camber means

just the opposite, the top of the tire is further away

from the centerline of the car than the bottom of

the tire.

TOE-IN AND TOE-OUT is a beneficial

adjustment and has a fairly significant effect on the

car. Toe-in will help stabilize your car and it also

removes a small amount of turn in steering. Toe-

out will allow the car to turn in to a corner quicker

but will cause instability exiting the corner or on

bumpy tracks. Both toe-in and toe-out will scrub

speed so try to use as little, of either, as possible.

You adjust the toe-in or toe-out by adjusting the

length of the steering tie-rod turnbuckles.

Excessive negative camber will decrease

traction but increase stability. Positive camber will

do the same.We suggest a starting setting of 2°of

negative camber. Try to use at least 1 to 2°nega-

tive camber at all times and make adjustments to

keep your tires wearing flat. This can be adjusted

by turning the upper arm turnbuckles in the appro-

priate direction.

#8433 (.024")

Harder (less steering)

#8431 (.022")

#8429 (kit std.) (.020")

#8427 (.018")

Softer (more steering)

CASTER CHANGE

The 0°mount is level with the chassis when

mounted. The 10°mount is angled 10°in relation

to the chassis or lower suspension arm. This angle

provides a change in caster during suspension

movement. The caster angle will change two de-

grees during full suspension travel. Your car will

steer more aggressively when using this option.The

starting or static caster setting is changed in the

same manner using the PTFE caster shims. Static

caster starts at either 2°, 4°, or 6°. A more detailed

example would be a starting caster of 2°will have 0°caster at full suspension travel and a starting caster of

6°will be only 4°at full suspension travel. This setup is recommended for road racing applications, giving you

the most aggressive steering possible.
