Longer front link mod calms the car down exiting corners and stops it hooking/over steering... Smoother cornering.
You need to remove 3mm plastic from top of steering knuckle top and to drill out yoke so it doesn't bind up..
It is a good mod but think would be better if mod was made so arms wern't at such a backward angle

There is a thread on this, but asny way

You will need the Losi 55mm long turnbuckles and the 10mm ball studs to replace the screw from the steering yoke to the caster block. As mentioned you need to trip 3mm off the top of the yoke to stop it catching on the wheel

it dose help, I ran rear motor with this on a veryl lose grass/ dirt track and it kept the car inline on highspeed tracks and the car didnt want to hook as much coming out of a bend.
