STEP 11: Shock Assembly and Installation Assemble the Center shock (TAM-1000R) and the side shocks (SK-1000R) as per the instructions included with each shock. Hyperdrive suggests using high quality silicon shock oils in your shocks. A good starting point on the shock setup is 50 wt. in the center shock and 30 wt. in both side shocks. Also start with the softer of the provided springs. At this time also attach the side shocks onto the ball ends. Make sure to use the included Associated Heavy Duty Ball Cups on both ends of the side shocks to attain proper shock length. The center shock will require a SHC screw and 4-40 lock nut supplied with the center shock mount for installation. Silva HPS2 Side Shocks Note: You need to cut about 1/8 inch off one of the ballcups on each shock. Step 11 Continued STEP 12: Bearing Carrier Installation: Locate the Ride Height Set (PP-2312) and choose the two adjusters with the holes in the center. Depending on the Final ride height of your car these may have to be changed. Note: Always install the same adjuster on each side of the pod in the same orientation. Failure to do this will cause the rear axle to bind and possibly destroy your bearings. Insert the two adjusters into the Pod sides. Press them in until they are flush with the inside of the Pod sides. Install a Rear Axle / Right Hub Bearing (1/4” x 3/8” flanged) into each of the Ride Height Adjusters (see below) STEP 13: Rear Axle/ Diff Assembly Locate the following for the Diff and Rear Axle assembly: Rear Axle (RA0401), Offset Diff Hub (RA-2405R), Left Side Wheel Hub (RA-2410R), (4) Micro-Washers (60-204), Spur Gear Bearing (RA-0408-NF), (4) Rear Axle and Right Hub Bearings (RA-0408), Diff Centering Set (RA-0411R), (12) Diff balls (TA-1145), Diff Rings (TA-1092) and Spur Gear (KP-216). Install the Spur Gear Bearing (1/4” x 3x8” flangeless) into the center of the Spur Gear. At this time also install the Diff Balls into the outer ring of holes in the Spur Gear. Install two of the Rear Axle / Right Hub Bearings (1/4” x 3/8” flanged) into the Diff Hub. Place one of the Diff rings onto the shoulder of the axle. Place a small amount of diff lube on each of the diff balls installed in the spur gear and place the spur gear assembly onto the axle. Now place the second diff ring onto the spur gear and slide the Diff Hub down over the axle making sure the diff ring aligns onto the shoulder of the hub. Install the Diff Centering cone over the end of the axle and secure it with the supplied nylon nut. Tighten just enough to hold the assembly firmly together. On Center Diff Assembly Offset Diff Assembly STEP 14: Rear Axle Installation Place one wide axle spacer over the free end of the axle. Insert through the right bearing carrier. Place four micro washers, and the left side clamping hub on the free end of the axle and tighten assembly. On Center Offset Step 15: Front End Assembly Locate the Lower A-Arm (ASC-8419), (1) plastic pivot ball (ASC-8417), (1) Alum. Pivot Ball(HY-8376), Upper Eyelet (ASC-8411). Start by installing the plastic pivot ball (ASC-8417) into the lower A-Arm (ASC8419), shoulder up. Next install the aluminum pivot ball (HY-8376) into the upper eyelet(ASC-8411) shoulder down. Step 15 Continued: Front End Assembly Locate upper A-Arm ASC-8405), upper eyelet (ASC-8411, and upper turnbuckle (ASC-8415). Install the upper turnbuckle (ASC8415) Into the upper eyelet (ASC8411) and the upper A-Arm (ASC8405). Locate the alum. Caster blocks( Hy-8360), and lower A-Arm (ASC-8419), (2) 4-40 x ½ SHC Screws. Attach the aluminum caster block (HY-8360) to the lower A-Arm (ASC8419) using two 4-40 x ½ SHCS. Locate the front axles (180-160), and steering blocks(HD-2514). Install the front axle (180-160 into the steering block (HD-2514). Note: Make sure the holes are inline or the kingpin will not fit properly. Step 15 Continued: Front End Assembly Locate upper A-Arm assembly, lower A-Arm assembly, steering block assembly, (1) kingpin (180-103), (2) spring buckets (10-92), (1) std. red front spring(10-113), (4) 1/8 x .020 brass shims(60-202), and (2) Eclips (ASC-6299). Place E-clip on one end of the kingpin (180-103) followed by one spring bucket (10-92), the spring(10-113), the other spring bucket and install through the lower a-arm then through steering block and then through upper eyelet. Place 4 1/8 x .020 Brass shims on the kingpin and the last e-clip. Step 15 Continued: Front End Assembly Locate the upper camber pin and shims (IRS-2373), the upper A-Arm assembly, and lower A-Arm assembly. Install the upper camber pin (IRS-2373) through the upper eyelet and caster block, install the two caster shims on the front side of the caster block on the left side (pictured) and on the back side of the caster block on the right side (not pictured). Locate (1) pivot ball (FA0534) and (1) alum. Locknut(60-100). Install the aluminum pivot ball (FA-0534) into the steering block as shown with the alum. Nut to lock into place. Step 16: Repeat Step 15 for the Right Side Front End Assembly Step 17: Front End Installation Locate (4) Red 8-32 x 5/8 FH Screws, (4) Red Front End Spacers, the Front End Assembly, (2) Red Servo Mounts (HY-8090R), and (2) 4-40 x ¼ FH Screws. Attach the front end assembly to the chassis using the (4) red 8-32 x 5/8 FH screws using the (4) red spacers between the locators and the front end . Attach the servo mounts (HY-8090R) using (2) 4-40 x ¼ FH screws. STEP 18 : Final Installation Finally install your electronics, Motor, Battery, Tires and Body. The location of your Steering Servo, Electronic Speed Control and Receiver are entirely up to you. Take great care when mounting these to the Chassis as their location effects the balance of the car. Also care should be taken when drilling, filing or sanding on any of the graphite components of your car as graphite dust is hazardous to your health. Tires are not included with this kit because every track and driver will have different preferences. If you are unsure of which tires to put on your car, consult your local hobby shop staff and they should be able to help you get the right combination for the track you are racing on.
