Default Axle assembly question

I'm assembling a cr01 and have a question about the axle assembly. The manual say they are tilted at 15deg front and 25 deg rear. How can I determine if I stalled them correctly on the chassis?

Thanks in advance.

Build the links and install them in the holes shown in the manual and it should come right...I don't recall any issues when building my 3 kits - just pay careful attention to what goes where. It can get hairy with all those links, holes, and spacers.

If you are unsure, post a pic from the side - a picture says 1000 words.

The springs in the front (on the left) seem like they are sort of "bent" and leaning. What do you think?

There are "15" and "25" markings on the lower part of the hub mouldings which line up with marking on the axle case.

Everything seems spot on to the manual. I know sometimes the springs can get set improperly in the retainers. Try loosening up the retainers and rotating the spring until it seats in a better position.
