I was trying to drive this thing to day but i was having some stering problems. I did limit my steering to where i don't really have that much to use but the tires just rub against everything like crazy!My spring holder things always get spun off by the rires and the tires unscrewed my shock seal retainer. Also,if i turn all the tires all way to a certain direction the axle dog bone sspins and grinds around in side the spindel. So any ideas or help would be nice. |

| I was also thiking about some new CVD'S.Where should i trim the servo plate?The tires aren't really rubbing against that but more like the shocks.I already did trim off two holes for the a 4-link adjustment because the servo arm hit it.

I don't have my steering limited and it rubs my shocks. But the only reason i have mine like that is, because I don't have dig. Every degree of steering is needed on my rig. But it looks like you have a dig. Why not play with your steering limit on your controller and get it where its real close to the shock but not rubbing it.

You could purchase new offset and skinnier wheels which will get the tires from rubbing on the shocks and such. There are also some threads in here about cutting out some from your stock axial wheels which will give you the same results.

Well i moved the shocks away from the tires which still rubs a little but not as much.I think I'm also going to buy some new front axles that can handle 42 degrees of steering.

Just got back from a little beach crawling.It was kind of sketchy beacause my suspension is pretty stiff and i have no drag brake and i was crawling up some pretty steep stuff with a cliff on my side. Oh no its all dirty.So long for the cleanest crawler on here. |

I have been working on getting the dig dialed in so i it won't give any problems when im out crawling like it has been.So for the past 4 days i have thinking on how to get it working just right becuase the design of it is horrible,its like the people who made didnt do any product testing with it. Ill explain what i did to it later when i can post pics of it. |
