1. First, be sure you have adjusted the
downstops equally on both sides.
2. Place the car on the flat board and
disconnect the shocks.
3.  Lift  up  the  front  right  wheel  very
slowly. When the front left wheel starts
to lift off the surface, note how far the
front right wheel has been lifted.
4.  Do  the  same  thing  on  the  other
side.  Lift  up  the  front  left  wheel  very
slowly.  When  the  front  right  wheel
starts to lift off the surface, note how
far the front left wheel has been lifted.
5.  When  properly  adjusted,  both
wheels should start to move up at the
same lifted position of the other wheel.
If this is not the case, then the eccentric
cam needs to be adjusted.
6.  Loosen  the  eccentric  cam  screw
from the front (you will need to use a
wrench under the foam bumper).
7.  Rotate  the  eccentric  cam  little  by
little until both wheels move up at the
same lifted distance. Tighten the set screw when the adjustment is complete. 

Hint:  If  you  have  the  anti-roll  bar  installed  and  the  track  conditions  do  not
require its use, you do not need to dismount the anti-roll bar. Just loosen the
two screws on the top of the anti-roll bar levers, then move both the male and
female  anti-roll  bars  so  they
disconnect,  then  tighten  the  screws
again.  Now  the  anti-roll  bars  are
disconnected.

If your car is understeering, then try
the optional rear anti-roll bar (#30
3400). The rear anti-roll bar will
decrease rear chassis roll and
decrease rear traction. This will give
your car more steering.

If  you  are  driving  on  a  high  traction
surface  and  your  car  tends  to
oversteer, use the optional front anti-
roll  bar  kit  (#30  2400).  This  will
decrease  the  front  chassis  roll  and
decrease  steering  throughout  the
corner.  This  will  give  your  car  more
rear traction.

1. Mount the anti-roll bar levers to the holes on the lower arms.
2. Insert both male and female anti-roll bars into the holes and secure them
with a screw in the top of the duraluminum levers.

NOTE: If you look at the anti-roll bar from above, the male anti-roll bar needs
to fit straight into the female anti-roll
bar.  When  viewed  from  above,  the
male and female anti-roll bars should
appear to make a straight line. If this
is not the case, insert shims as needed
between the duraluminum anti-roll bar
lever  and  the  arm  to  get  the  female
and male  anti-roll bars to fit straight.

The  front  anti-roll  bar  is  very  easy  to
adjust. Loosen the screws on the top of
the duraluminum levers and rotate the
blades.  To  soften  the  anti-roll  setting,
rotate  the  blades  so  they  lay  flat.  To
stiffen  the  anti-roll  setting,  rotate  the
blades  so  they  are  vertical.  You  can
also  adjust  the  hardness  of  the  anti-
roll bar anywhere in between flat and
vertical for fine tuning.
