im flapping about what oils to use all round as no1 (at least i think no1) has gone with full kit setup.
I want to get it all setup and ready for chadderton on the 11th
(is anyone doing chadderton? please share the setup youll be using, also what tyres will you be using?)
thanks

I dont know how thick AE standard o-rings are im afraid. It is the low friction X-Rings i am using. I tried them with the kit shock bottom and didnt like it, was a bit too compressed for my liking. with the AE (Avid) shock bottoms they are perfect.
I am waiting to check them tonight for air, but i am expecting this to be the route i will suggest if asked about it.
With regards springs, i didnt try the kit ones, but they seemed ok if a little soft. Yatabe springs didnt feel good on this car. I loved them on the YZ2 and the Xray XB4, but the S104 is much much better on AE springs.
AE springs fit fine, but overhang the collars very slightly. I am running the Avid collars which fit the sworkz body perfectly.
