Anyone have plans or know of anywhere to get good home-made setup boards? I was looking at some of the ones you buy in the store and the price seemed a little steep for what it is... I mean hey, a few protractors, rulers and some wood right? http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

The setup boards aren't quite as simple as you might want to think http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/wink.gif I'm not pushing the Hudy boards, but I have one for my MBX4 and love it...it's awesome, and very high quality.

I did setup my car using RPM's camber guage and a ruler & caliper before the Hudy though, and I was only about 2 degrees off at any point. Depends on just how accurate you want to be w/your setups. If you haven't tried RPM's guages and you're looking for a more affordable way to set up your car, give them a shot.

Cool, thanks for the info. You say you like the hudy then huh? How much did it cost? Did you feel that it was worth the money getting that over using the calipers and stuff? An ofna OB4 is almost in my hands and i know that it takes more than just eyeballing to get it set up right.
