Ok, Im going to run the 400ex in the fall, and I have someone who is going to make a set of spacers for me to try..I was wondering if you all who have raced flattrack,give me sizing that would work beast... Would it be +4 and +2 rear?:confused: eventually Im sure Ill get a wider rear axle and maybe a-arms, but its gonna be ahwile before I can afford all that with us both having to set up for the track..Thanks..... :)

Yes, I plan on sway bar and spacers, and a lowering kit as weel, but was trying to come up with the appopriate sixing on the spacers.. So I was told last night,....+2 in the front(to make it a +4) and a +2 in the rear..Am I correct ???

I apprecaite your help......;)
