but if you put spacer on the front hing pins of the front a-arms and then, put spacers on the front of the hing pins in the rear a-arms. meaning... making the rear longer then making the front end shorter... putting more weight on the front wheels giving you better, quicker stearing... would that work?

EDIT: quicker steering on carpet and faster responce? it might throw something off though. not sure.....

I've raced on a very dusty track before couldn't hold my lines at all.... but i think with this adjustment i could've gotten better steering....

someone correct me if my theory is wronge

Although it wouldnt have taken you much effort to look it up ... a little lazy perhaps?

I am hearing some binding from the servo when I turn the steering at 100%. I only have my EPA to 50%. I mad sure my servo horn is centered so I know that couldn't be the problem. I had to sutrn my dual rate down to 60% just to stop the servo from binding. I am using the 3pk.

Is there a step that I am missing or what should I change.
