Angle how? Towards the top or towards the front? To the top: The chassis has 2 mounts for the inner hing pin on the upper arms. Most likely it is in the lower mount which gives more camber as suspension compresses. Try moving it to the top mount. To the front: Classic bump steer. Steering links have to be parallel to the suspension arms and the same lengths as much as possible. Assuming they are not parallel - The revo/summit/slayer platform uses adjustable ball ends that can make some adjustments. Refer to the reactive tow/bump steer chart about 3/4 of the way down the page - should help you get it dialed in: Traxxas - Revo Performance Set-Up Guide (Part 1) | traxxas.com in fact, the camber section is right below it too - worth a read. |

looking from on top when suspension is pushed down the rear tires will angle in getting closer to bumper if that makes sense
