The Mayako MX8 provides the option to raise and lower the front knuckle height, with 3 positions possible through the movement of shims (MYH0049).
When the knuckle is moved with the shims, the length of king pins must also be adjusted. Both long and short, top and bottom king pins are included in your kit.
Knuckle Position | Shims on top of knuckle | King Pin Usage | Affect on car | Suggested track condition |
---|---|---|---|---|
Top | 0 | Short top, long bottom | Less initial grip / more overall grip | High grip / bumpy track |
Middle | 1 | Short top, short bottom | Balanced steering | Start point |
Bottom | 2 | Long top, short bottom | More initial grip | Low grip / smooth track |
