Need a caster related measurement. I've got a cut up plate different links and different linkage mounting points and forgot to check this before I started cuttin. I couldn't fit my gauge down to the plate on Honcho, so I set a square block on top of plate and then my anger finder on top of that. Measured my AX-10 with Gatekeeper GC-3A setup and it's tilted about 2 degrees forward. My caster is still positive on both my crawlers.

Could somebody who has a stock SCX-10 set an angle finder on top of the front servo mount plate (or on the servo if it's mounted)?

FYI I measured a brand new stock AX-10RTR today and it was about 10 degrees forward tilt at servo mount plate. This explains my somewhat less than ideal (although acceptable) front driveshaft angle. It is almost the same tilt as my GC-3A which drives real good, so I'll leave it as is and try that.
