quick question are the RacerX arms longer than the stock arms?
and if so how much?
i c the setbacks say there 22mm longer are the front arms longer too?

No, they are the same width. The setbacks extend the truck with 23mm, they don't make it any wider.

1 minute.. That's a quick answer...

Gundam-Guy · 02.04.2007, 05:05 PM

lol yea real quick

Gundam-Guy · 02.04.2007, 05:06 PM

so why are the RacerX so good?

Sylvester · 02.04.2007, 05:47 PM

Its because they eliminate the rear upper arms with turnbuckles, look great and are strong. 1 problem with them is pillowballs break easily.

7075 aluminum, unique geometry. and they didn't take the easy route in machining them..

Pretty damn pricy, too. They're worth the money, though.

that's odd, I have never broke a PB, heck im still running my original stock ones from when i got my maxx, back in 2001.....

Gundam-Guy · 02.05.2007, 03:46 PM

are they better than the FlexTek arms?

Sylvester · 02.05.2007, 04:19 PM

For racing yes, but for bashing the flex of the flextechs are nicer.

coolhandcountry · 02.05.2007, 04:20 PM

They are different. Like apples to grapefruit comparsion. flex tech good basher.

this is how the suspesnions break down in order of quality & performance ( this is my take on it...

Racer X- (best suspension made --widetrac, Racer X)
Gorilla maxx (2nd)
FLM (3rd)
Flextech (4th)
RPM (5th)
Integy (6th)
stock (7th)

My list would be like this ;

1-Racer X
2-Flextech
3-G-maxx
4-FLM

To be honest, my list would be like this:

1-Racer-X
2-Integy Type 3 Pro
3-G-Maxx
4-Harcore
5-FLM
6-RPM
7-Flextech
8-Stock

I know, I know, the Integy is junk, but to be honest, I don't think the Type 3 is all that bad. If Leroy didn't break it, then you know its not bad...
