I like to run the lower shock mount screws (black normal threaded ones) upside down there. You can't fit any washers with it but the hex head keys in so you only need one 5.5mm wrench to remove the nut on top. Flipping the ball ends plus the 4 washers on the ackermann plate usually gives me all the bumpsteer adjustment I need.

so I would finally change the screw for a round head one (2.5mm hex ) , I would put it upside down , I would get rid of the 3 washers and would put a nut ( nylstop ) on top of all that !

Thanks for the info guys. I'll see how it goes with the standard setup.
I have another question. What rebound does everyone run with standard built shocks? Or is it better just to build them in the vent setup? I've only ever built standard so I a bit apprehensive of the vent style.

Emulsion builds use the bleeder screw, and are different shock builds than the others. Standard and Vented on the other hand are built exactly the same way, and rebound is set exactly the same way when building. The only difference is that a vented shock won't build up air pressure to make rebound faster like a standard shock build, since the cap itself is vented. I generally build with about 25% rebound.
I've personally preferred vented on almost all track conditions with all of my Tekno vehicles, but I often run stiffer springs than many as well, which can give me some of that faster rebound back as compared to others with softer springs.

Thanks for your reply. I might try vented. I'm reading the manual and I can't really see the difference during the build between vented and standard. Do I build them exactly the same except the 15mm of shaft showing?
Also, got my practice body finished today. Have a Leadfinger Assassin on it's way from being professionally airbrushed.
