Hello everyone,

I’ve recently finished my 5b sbk and im unsure if I have too much rear toe, I have double checked that I’m using the correct spacers as per the manual, but I don’t know whether to go down to a 2 or 3 degree over the stock 4 degree.

Thanks
Jack

2 degrees is plenty on the baja fella (y) ,
the less rear toe the less stable the car is, off road i run at 0 degrees and have no issues at all with handling,
on road maybe maybe go with 2 degrees , on road the more rear toe you have the more tyre scrub you will have,
in turn the scrub pulls down the top speed,
 
Thank you for your replies, I will try and take it out at the weekend and see how it goes, I had put them in the wrong way round initially so had toe out and found that it would just spin really easily and was hard to control, at first I thought it was me not being used to rwd after coming from 4wd nitro but then I though surely it shouldn’t be quite so tail happy

Thanks
Jack

yeh toe out on rear makes things very interesting with the handling fella, easy mistake to do though,
