If the car is new right from the box, normally there is lot of burr between C-hubs and A-arms. Also some burrs are normally located in hinge pin inner outputs on the A-arm. Remove them first.

Re: Battery fitting
Thanks Hooked, that worked perfect. I also used the Trinity Bars, (they are flat) instead of Deans.
The batteries fit nice and snug now.

Been a couple of years since my FT TC3 was new, but I remember a lot of masaging of the arms to get them to hang free.
Mostly sanding material where the arms and c-hubs meet. Ballcups will loosen after you pop them once or twice and the hinge pin polishing just seems like a waste of time.

Proudwinner,
I actually had a bad AE ballstud on my last FTTC3 kit. It was the wrong diameter and was rough. No biggie because I had a spare, but it does happen. *shrug*

Get a RPM front bumper too. I haven't broken my front end once with it, you can get it from Tower too. I don't think he meant the suspension arm mounts, I think he meant the actual hinge pins. Hope this helps.
