+2 or +3 axle...need advice.

[thomps6s]

I am putting +2 LSR a-arms on my 400ex. I found a LSR +3 axle for $220 shipped. Will this be an okay setup or should I hold off and get a +2 axle? I realize the difference is only an inch between the two, but I am kinda a noob with the aftermarket setups, any help would be appreciated.

well i think stock a 400ex is 43 inches wide up front so + 3 a-arms on a 400ex would be better than +2 cuz i dont think +3 makes u over 50inches on a 400ex but not for sure.


wider is better jest cant b over 50 inches for racing.

if it is an LSR, it is probably adjustable.....my LSR axcalibur is adjustable from +2 to +4....

oops i thought he was taklin about the a-arms. i have that axel and its still not broke

[thomps6s]

The axle is adjustable form stock to +3 with the spacers.
The spacers are 1.5 inches each.

[Chino886]

yes that is a good set up...I am sure you will notice a big difference....

Yup, grab the axle. They are adjustable with the spacers as the others have said.

[thomps6s]

I know it is adjustable with the spacers. The spacers are 1.5 inches each. So it is either stock or +3 no in between.
So +3 in the back and +2 in the front will be a good setup? It won't be too fat in the back.

I am sure you will be fine, if you have 3:2 offset front wheels, you will be wide....

I am at +4 in the rear and when I put the 3:2s on my +2 arms, I think it is about right.

I run the +2 lsr arms and +3 axle with stock off set hipers I really like it.

[thomps6s]

Yeah, I think i will scoop it up. If I don't like it, I am sure I could order 1 inch spacers.
