1. - i use fast setting glue, and very little, just a small dab on the barrel avoiding the cross pin locations....its just enough to hold the clip in place, some people use shrink wrap over the entire djc barrel. I like the glue. Shoe goo would probably work too.
2. - that will work as well.
If you do disassemble the DJC take note that there are 2 different sized spring clips, don't mix them up or one will be a little loose and the other will not cover the cross pin completely.

And another question (I'm sorry if it is answered before)
How do I asseble the optional Steering mount stiff (SER401863). In the pics it is shown that you screw from above and underneath,....but the is nothing to screw into... Am I missing some part??

Hey guys what are you using for a post between the main chassis and top deck?

I use a Tamiya F104 battery post iirc its 26mm, and I'll just put a 1mm shim between the post and the top deck to stiffen the car when needed.

To be able to use 401863 you will require 401588 posts. then your levers will mount to the 401588 and the rest of the mount will use the typical screws through the chassis.

You could try shortening the shock rods a couple threads.

We used to run those on on the S411 short shock so that you could still use the 23mm springs. That said, they should give you some more adjustment on the X20, just check that you still have clearance on the attachment point of the lower arm to shock.
***I think I still have a set of those in my spares, I will check if they are different when I get home.
