Timmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy- I think there are two sizes. I use the ball studs that are 13mm in length and they work good.

ok i have ball studs that fit, but when i shim 4mm the ball ends touch the front pivot and won't allow it to turn. so my question is how do you over come that?

thanks again!

i have the same problem when you go to the outside hole on the rear up rights. what you do is shave off the top of the ball cup just gotta keep an eye on the amount of dirt that gets in there as it will wear out the ball end quicker

This is what happens when you're not happy with the last time you raced.....LOL New plastic everywhere

It will be ready for electronic installation tomorrow if I don't get it all done today. My son's football practice zapps all the energy out of me

I must be getting old!!!

Scotty and I have some work to do against some of the guys that are Tamiya loyal on Sunday. Should be a great fun day......Well back to car rebuilding.

Pics are the front end on the left side of set up board, rear on the right, and chassis in the middle.
