Default Problem with diver side alignment

It seems that my alignment is way off on the drivers side.....my trim is set at 0 on the transmitter, passenger side is nice and straight......but as you can see in the picture not so much the drivers side......any suggestions on what I should check to fix it? It's all stock axial wraith spawn axles. Thanks

Is the steering bar in the same hole on both sides. And are you sire its for an scx10.. It looks a lot longer then mine and that would throw one of them out.

Edit: just re read and saw they are not stock axles.

Yeah, there is only one hole for it to go into. I'm kind of stumped I want to say maybe the steering link is to long but it's for the wraith so it shouldn't be.

The link is too long and with it being a one-piece link you'll have to bend it if you want to shorten it.

I guess it is a little but is it enough to make the steering off that bad?

Ok after bending it little by little I got it much straighter and judging by how hard it was to bend it wasn't off cause of hitting a rock damn. ... lol. Thank goodness thanks guys my project overkill can move on lol.

Guess its too late to say this really.. but if you just trimmed your radio a little so both tires were toed out (angled outward) by the same amount.. you would get a little quicker turning and slightly tighter turning radius.

HR links are known to be a little longer, so it wasn't anything you did.

Yeah but that one side that was out when turned to the right while facing it it would rub real bad on the link when turned so i would have to reduce the steering anyway.

ah ok thats nice to know thanks, a little long on the suspension links would be fine but not the steering .
