Setup and Installation

The Dilwe Shock Absorber Mounts are designed for easy integration with your 1/10 RC Crawler Car. Follow these steps for proper installation:

1. Preparation: Ensure your RC crawler car is powered off and stable. Identify the existing shock absorber mounting points on your vehicle's chassis.
2. Removal of Old Mounts (if applicable): Carefully remove any existing shock absorber mounts or brackets from your RC car. Keep all screws and small parts organized.
3. Positioning the New Mounts: Place the Dilwe Shock Absorber Mounts onto the designated chassis locations. Note the various holes available for different shock angles and heights.
4. Securing the Mounts: Use appropriate screws (typically from your RC car's original hardware or compatible screws) to firmly attach the mounts to the chassis. Do not overtighten.
5. Attaching Shock Absorbers: Connect your RC car's shock absorbers to the desired mounting holes on the newly installed Dilwe mounts. Experiment with different holes to achieve your preferred suspension geometry.
6. Final Check: Once installed, gently move the suspension up and down to ensure smooth operation and no binding. Verify all screws are secure.

Operating and Adjustment

The primary function of these mounts is to allow for precise adjustment of your RC car's shock absorbers. This adjustment can significantly impact your vehicle's handling characteristics.

• Angle Adjustment: By utilizing different horizontal mounting holes, you can change the angle at which the shock absorbers are positioned. A more vertical shock angle generally provides a firmer, more direct response, while a more angled position can offer increased articulation and softer damping.
• Height Adjustment: The vertical arrangement of holes allows you to adjust the effective height of the shock absorber's mounting point. Raising the mounting point can increase ground clearance and suspension travel, while lowering it can reduce the center of gravity for better stability.
• Experimentation: It is recommended to experiment with different hole combinations to find the optimal setup for your specific driving conditions and preferences. Make small adjustments and test the vehicle's performance.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Dilwe Shock Absorber Mounts, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the mounts for any signs of wear, bending, or damage, especially after heavy use or impacts.
• Cleanliness: Keep the mounts free from dirt, dust, and debris. A soft brush or cloth can be used for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the metal finish.
• Screw Tightness: Check the tightness of all screws securing the mounts to the chassis and the shock absorbers to the mounts. Vibrations during operation can sometimes loosen screws.
• Storage: When not in use, store your RC car in a clean, dry environment to prevent corrosion or damage to metal components.
