check your kit for a black cone washer stampled to the white paper on the diff instructions revised with the kit it should go behind the nut in the diff this will keep the diff from loosing up on you

Anyone have any issues with the battery getting hung up on the metal insert for the top deck on the battery side in the back? Mine is very snug and the insert pushes back the shrink wrap on my cells. Anyone else had this issue?

Yeah, with the CG and top deck so low it can be a problem. Dremel down the head and check to see if your battery slots might need a little extra too. Its very common.

Default Phi Steering Blocks duraluminium

Anyone knows if Corally changed the steering blocks duraluminium from the old Assassin/RDX to the new RDX Phi.

Or, by other words: what are the changes in changing the ackermann in the new Phi, reducing the angle of the turnbuckles.

If someone has a photo would be nice

Not sure what the angle differences are, but the phi is a single bellcrank system and the rdx was a dual... the single bellcrank defianely has more angle on the inside tire (just from visual refference).

Thanks Big Rigg, but what I mean is: when you see those long (38mm) turnbuckles in a slightly angle, is there any possibility to put in parallel or inverted angle?

There is no way to make them parallel. The car felt better to me then the RDX. BTW, that is a pretty car!

Ahhhh I gotcha now... I've seen a guy with a carbon fiber plate that he screwed onto the end of the bellcrank. But it just spaced out the ball studs (for shorter links)... perhaps someone could make one to extend the length of the crank by about a mill or 2.

I anyone know the team tamale guy? This may be worthwhile option...
