Anyone know of good videos explaining how to build a free front end, square rear pod, and proper way to set the axle height on CRC CK25s? I have a way that I found works, but seeing how others do things always helps.

Front end I use mothers polish on the kingpins, pillow balls and suspension pins. Makes for a free setup and takea maybe a minute or two per part.

Where did you find this "bumper". Did you print it yourself in TPU? Care to share the file?

mine clamp just fine. Dumb question, but are you tightening both clamping screws equally? The hubs will spin on the axle if only one of the screws are tight. Also, it might help to tighten the clamping screws before fitting the wheels. And the last suggestion….the axle needs to be dry (no bearing oil) in order to give the hubs their best chance of not slipping.

I'll try and make sure of the latter when I get back to the track today. But after swapping axles and hubs from another car it was still slipping last night

I have over a half dozen CRC hubs and I have never had one slip that was tightened properly so be sure to check that. It is remotely possible that you have a bad part though. Those things do happen.

It's been all the new double clamps that have done it to me including the one in the new kit. I have this one tight 'enough' for the last qualifier and if it slips ill put on the last new hub that I have but I'm going yo have to contact CRC on this because I've never had an issue with them before with any of their parts

Another silly question- how do the bearings fit the new kit’s axle? If your bearings seem a tad loose on the axle, maybe the axle shaft is slightly undersized.
