Default Rear Hinge pin block

Just wondering does this part have the same amount of rear toe/anti squat as the kit plastic one??

I have noticed on the set up sheets it shows two of these blocks as an option?

Stu, I'm not quite sure that is true. According to this description of parts from the Yokomo website, it would seem the plastic rear mount that comes with the FT kit is also 3º.

It's not always easy interpreting the description on these sheets, even once Google has translated them. But that's what I'm reading anyways... Please correct me if I'm wrong... It's been know to happen...

Cheers!

i dont know then all i know is when it was measured on the rear of my car the plastic version was clearly 3.5deg and the alu version was 3.0deg the car always felt better on the race track with the plastic mount.

but im not gonna argue with what yokomo say tho but they are a bit vague so who knows.

Definetly Stu! And as I said, I'm going from a google translation, so take it for what it's worth. And I haven,t measured anything, so... But from what I read of the translation, both seem to be 3 deg...

Cheers!
