Default Low roll center

Has anyone tried the low roll center RF suspension hanger yet, do you need the rear hanger with the inserts to use it? How does it affect the car?

Seen that thanks, but it doesn't mention anything about the LRC front hanger.

You don't need the new rear hanger with inserts to use the low roll center. It actually explains this in the manual. If you use the low roll center, you'll have to use a lower rear hanger to maintain the same anti squat level. Low roll center will make the car roll easier.

that looks exactly the same, yet has a different part number and no +/- 2 on it...

It might be a part that gives you some middle ground in between the kit settings?

It's a lot lower than the kit block.

I assume it's lower than the kit parts, giving you the option of going lower still, making the kit -2 setting the middle ground if you see what i mean. In which case you would need to run the rear mount even lower or lose the anti squat.

when you put the car into LRC mode you raise the rear hanger to keep the same (or close enough) anti-squat. so in HRC the '3' gives 3 degrees, but turn it upside down into LRC and the inverted '1' insert gives 3.3 degrees. I think you can pop the older 2010 #2 hanger on to get back to 3 degrees though?

If that new block gives an even lower RC than the kit one then you'd end up with >3.3 degrees of max squat achieved from the inverted '1' insert and perhaps going to the inverted '2' insert would bring you closer to the original 3 degrees?

If you ran this newer block to give an even higher RC (than kit) then you would need a new rear hanger to keep the 3 degrees using the '3' insert again.

(my question marks are for clarification from TD)
