More impressive is the email John sent today..... Asking how I liked it, and if any troubles to tell him, if I love it, tell the world. He also implied he listens to the crawlers needs and advice....

Punched the tires today' WHAT a difference, I was able to do a 90 degree drop, hang and control down....... landing upright will take a bit more, But the more practice I get digging, the more fun I will have |

Im liking team broods 850 3s batterys. Perfect size for the bully. Im just not used to these short run times of 850 batterys though. Lol. I need to order more batterys. Also, clock your chubs back second to last hole. Then put both steering on top of the knuckles to fix that angled steering. I also added a small spacer to drag link (top steering link) and your servo horn will be straight and rest of your steering will cycle and like you better. |

Who said not to clock it? Clocking it is needed but 8 degree knuckle arent. Maybe that's what you heard? Plus that caster helps on climbs.

Yes 2 screws hold on the C's. You might have to unbolt the tierod and drag link from knuckles. Remove wheel, Then remove the two screws pull knuckle, C and axle all in 1 piece off far enough to turn/click the C back.

U dont have to take wheel off but you can. Disconnect both sides of steering from knuckle, undo 2 screws and pull whole assembly out and rotate it back, then do the same on other side. Then put both steering links on top of the knuckle. The side with both steering attached might not clear the tire. I added slw spacers to each side to help clear tires rubbing the links and also steering links cleared tire. Gear head (rpp hobby) and dlux both sell slw spacer. There cheap and you can mess with different widths instead of buy new slw hubs. The added width also helps with it being more stable.

I think you figured it out... pic below is my berg with knuckle turned back. Set bully c's/knuckles close to mine rig... hope pic helps.  Look at both sides you'll noticed knuckle steering arm points up (kinda) |

| Re: Two
When I first tried it I kept hitting battery tray( my angle holding) The other way links were worse! Did get them done, do need my spacers to prevent rubbing. Did install br/xl/mini and love it. Even have room for a "rider"....... |
