Huddy Tuning Board

[nitrolight]

I bought my Hudy system at
http://www.ashfordhobby.com/
I actually found it easier to deal with them on the phone ( 800-380-6517 )
there web site is not as user friendly as say Towerhobbies...
Good luck with whatever system you get, the important thing is
using it and not the "brand name"...

Anyone have experience with the PMB setup station?

Hard to read, but does the trick. Holes for the rear camber adjustment can prove to be difficult when making adjustments because a straight shot cannot be reached for the hex to seat itself correctly. The same goes for the old hudy system, not the new one.

This can be dealt with in 2 ways ... either lift the car and make the adjustments then resting the car down again to make the readings or enlarge the adjustment holes with a dremel.

as far as th eeasy reading issue I have a solution for it....take neon orange or some obnoxious color and wipe the board where the lines are etched in w/ the paint....then wipe off the excess and you have filled lines that you can see.......works great...

When making camber adjustments, if you want -2.5 camber, do you set this at the cars regular ride height or when the suspension is fully compressed?

-2.5/-5-6 or 0/-2.5?

This is the setup board that I use.
If you ask me, Hudy is too expensive for a setup station.
Look into this for $130.00.

I just ordered one of these from Tower for $107.99. I was able to use a $20 coupon because I also ordered other stuff and I got free shipping because I am a club member. I should get it in time for my last race of the season. :dumb:

I have a similer model, I bought the blocks and the board seperate.

That model doesn't offer 4 blocks, instead it gives you these stupid alu. wheels and two blocks, I didn't like the fact that you couldn't make adjustments to the front and rear at once since you had to keep switching them by taking them off.
