I love the car but this is a huge week point and when I go back to the standard shafts, I get lots of chatter on carpet and traction rolling. Any ideas here?
That's been an issue so far with the Roche axles.. unclear why it persists .. that said, it's also odd that you'd now begin to traction roll .. The chattering is normal and will increase the closer the axle gets to steering lock either left or right. The standard axles do give a bit more entry steering but it depends where in the corner your actually rolling at and from the front or rear.. If its basically as you enter the corner, sometimes raising the front roll center and reducing front droop can help ..
