Default Stabilizer Help

Hi all

Sorry if this has already been covered.

I recently acquired a TA05 Hopup Stabilizer kit for my TA05. I have some issues with putting it on the car.

My TA05 is fully hopped up using Tamiya LW Reversible suspension arms, and I have found that the front stabilizer post is very very close or touching the front drive axles. Can anyone if running the same set up give me how they spaced out the front arms so I can use my front stabilizer.

Thanks in advance!

the rear portion of the chassis would twist and unload like an undamped spring kicking the arse end out.....

I don't see much of an advantage going back to saddle packs..my car is pretty balanced out of the box...just a little chunky--Al

motor sits further in, further forward, chassis looks nice and stiff... tempted though.

Would the chassis be a little more unbalanced because the motor is not in the center of the chassis as it sits off to one side? Past saddle pack chassis had the motor more centered on the chassis. 414M, HPI Pro1 and 2, Xpress and others...
