Looking good man.. But your rear lowers are on backwards.. Small bed should be axle side. Like this: |

Ok so ive been working on my rig but my computer or photo bucket started acting stupid so I can't post picks right now im bummed .any way I made my steering link solid steel rod and mounted up my tires and checked my width and I was I lot wider then I was expecting ..im running vp slw wheels .7 wide and voodoos stock. .ok so from outside tire to outside tire im 11.625 front and 11.125 rear lookin back at in old post looks like 10.75 to 10.25 Is more normal .. So maybe im just doing something wrong but vp website says berg should be at a smaller size but they also say wheel to wheel not tire? Whatever it is im going to get some .225 to bring me in some I know .7 wheels is kinda narrow and I wanted 1.0 but made a mistake and bought the wrong ones in a drunk shopping spree |

No worries..... That is easy to fix. I am happy running Shift Hubs front and rear. I am right at 11 front and 10.8 rear.....

You need CASTER...BAD Your c-hubs should be rotated back from vertical. |

Ya when I set my c hubs up they were off the links so I thought it was vertical as is the servo but ..ya I'm testing definitely needs pos caster ..at least I know it's only going to get better ..

Do you have a pic from the side of the rig with one front tire off? If you could pull the tires and sit it on the table and take a pic from the side that would be good. If not...just pull 1 tire and put something small under the front axle to keep it level and snap a pic that way.

Yes a side shot would help...... Press down on the rig and let it rebound natural as well. I just emailed you some reference photos as well. We will have you kicking it in no time....

You keep incorrectly referring to what you have as positive caster and saying that you need negative caster. It's the other way around. |

I run way more caster than what you just changed it to.

Your rig is getting there. Looks a bit too tall to me in the photos. Try laying the shocks down or shorten the some how. I would drop you upper links down a hole or two as well. Try and get you uppers parallel with the ground.
