crawlster®D18 TUNING-KIT: the 4,5 x longer outer tuning springs optimize the impact / rebound behavior of the standard dampers

Standard dampers: the deflection of the short internal springs begins far above the vehicle weight (grey), the spring pressure increases disproportionately in the further course and will limit the damper travel to 7 mm when the springs are completely compressed.

crawlster®D18 TUNING-KIT: the deflection of the external 4.5 x longer outer tuning springs (S=soft) starts below the vehicle weight (grey), the spring pressure remains also with increasing compression almost linear and allows full damper travel of 10 mm

Readings per (1) spring; vehicle-weight incl. LiPo w/o axles and wheels = approx.290 g / 4 = ca. 72g / spring

The unique crawlster®D18-Joint ensures an unrestricted steering angle and significantly improves the curve performance

unique crawlster®D18-Joint
improved steering geometry due to utilization of the maximum possible turning angle of the universal shafts
no obstruction on the inside of the curves Knuckles through damper-RodEnds
tighter curve radii / neutr. Ackermann
adjustable toe-in / toe-out
BTA – no tie rod in front of the axle

crawlster® D18-components are shown in YELLOW – also available in BLACK.

The crawlster®D18 TUNING-KIT creates the decisive conditions for the fundamental optimization of dampers + steering

Here are 2 additional TIPS ....

...for the cautious

Mount the front/lower links"inside"

to get more freedom of steering -

exspecially when using more voluminous tires

such as the Goodyear WRANGLER MT/R 1

...for the brave ones

Carefully* (!), laterally obliquely milled out the bone slits with a cutting disc in the lower area by about 1-1.5 mm – brings another, visibly improved steering angle (* at your own risk)
