Tc3 A-arms have no provisions for droop screws
#36
The original TC3 did not have provisions for droop screws in the suspension arms or on the chassis. Later editions did have droop screws in the arms and the chassis was revised as well to accommodate.
Sounds like you purchased after market aluminum arms and if they do not have the droop screws then you can only adjust droop my adding/removing shims from inside the shocks. It is a PITA to change droop as you must rebuild the shocks each time.

Not entirely true . If you get it close with internals you can do your fine adjustments by unscrewing the shock ends to get your change . I very rarely vary from 1.5mm over ride height to 2.5 ovh on carpet and from 2.0 ovh to 3.0 ovh on asphalt. Set the fronts at 1.5 with internal shims then you can extend to 2.0 ovh with I think one turn out of shock end .

Ok got it all assembled “right” had to use some tc4 hub carriers since the tc3 were shot big time
So since I don’t have a droop gauge I just did it by making sure both wheels lift off the ground the same time.
I know that is probably wrong till I get a gauge
