Actually the other driver also tired Associated for a short time and gave that up too. He is my man Steve Eaves, a DC driver from Oklahoma. Welcome aboard Steve-O !!!!

I can only out this down to the offset diffs, is this right or is there a shock problem i need to address? Also, on the front, i can only get ride height down to 6mm unless i increase droop. Any ideas how to overcome this?
Any help greatly appreciated!
you might have to check your shocks it sounds like something is not level, the Losi Shock tool is great for this. But i must warn you it takes time to even out the shock with this tool to a point where it might get frustrating. But it's soo accurate!

on my car the collars perfectly even on the shock and i have no issues running as low as 3mm ride height on the car.

You might also need to trim the shock end caps 1/8" to free up more travel. But look over your car something in the shocks is not correct.

Good luck with the JRXS!!!

Yes with the new brackets that are molded on the arms. We used them in Cleveland on all of our cars including MF's tq and winning setup and Eli Ezrow's tq and winning setup in the Masters division.

Actually the arms are OUT

if you saw me drive at Champs-you wouldnt be worried. I should get a trophy for doing the least with the most!! My JRXS was so dialed and it was so fast and I drove like crap.
