Default D4 Rear hub Carriers

I want to get the aluminium rear hub carriers for my D4, however they come in two angles -> 0.5 degree and 1 degree.

Which one of these matches the standard plastic rear hub carriers that come with the kit?
I'm finding that the little grub screw in the hub carriers is stripping the thread so I want to upgrade to the aluminium ones...

Thx,
Jason.

The standard plastic ones are 0deg so to have an overal 3 deg rear toe in you will have to get the optional 2.5 deg block and use the o.5 deg metal hub. The new worlds edition has metal hubs but I dont know if they are 0 deg or not.

okay thanks for that. I was trying to look everywhere to get the angle for the standard ones, so if they are 0 degrees that makes sense.

Spencer is right - but there are some zero degree alloy rear hubs due later this month, along with some alloy 13 degree caster blocks and the wide front bumper/low wing mount set

Hi Mark,

Yes, all of the new parts from the Worlds Car will be available as seperate items. I'll dig out the part numbers for the items on Monday and post them for those that want to get the parts on order.
