xghost.... just doing something with the front may not take care of push.. setting up the back of the car and battery and tires make as much of a difference as anything up front. what springs r u running? shock positions? all makes a difference... you should have so much steering your trying to dial it out.

on building your kits.. take your time and sand , smooth and polish all the ball ends, hinge pins, and any rough edges on plastic.. don't over tighten things.. you shouldn't feel like you need a torque wrench when building your car.. simply tighten till it snugs and good.. no need to go all gorilla on it.
I have found that you can drive 3 kits built by 3 different people with the same setups.. and if one takes time to build the kit it will feel way better then the other 2.

1 7/8? isn't that a bit long? The B5 kit I bought came with 1 3/4 for the steering links and 1 5/8 for the camber links. I guess I don't have to worry about bottoming my turnbuckles out...

40mm Kyosho turnbuckles fit well for me. Only issue for me in the build was a user error with a gearbox spacer, car build is awesome as good as kyosho/yoko/xray and little better than losi. The low friction cups are not as free as I would like them, but I put a drop of shock oil through the holes and they are awesome now.

They flat spot if the diff slipped.
Replace with ceramic balls, they will never flat spot and can be used over & over saving you money ...
