Is there a risk in using alloy hubs? Does it bend easily in a crash, coz with the original it will just break and can get rid of it.

Shoe Goo'd Servos
can you guys post pix of shoe goo'd servos and other electronics layouts?? im trying to get more room in my cyclone for my FAAST receiver, LRP TC esc and Ko Propo 2419 low profile servo...... looks like the only way to do is shoe goo the servo forward or have the receiver on top of the servo.
man i cant wait for the Ko Propo 2.4ghz system! uber tiny receiver!

You can also check the reedy race i think last year. i forgot the guy who took pictures, (i think his name is like boomer something.)

Thanks for the advise, I have checked the hinge pins and changed it from front to back but same result. It has been like this since I assembled the car (new), I was affraid that it may have been assembled badly but I have checked and double checked many times to see what went wrong. Also the rear hubs are spaced equally from left to right. Is the reading on your car equal both sides?

I cut one of the ears on the servo. the other mounted on the servo mount
and shoo goo'd. and everything fits perfectly.

Moved my servo forward, cut the ears, and chopped the turnbuckle in the steering link, and everything fits awesome

which i really dont want to do. but i guess i have no choice.

It is very common through alot of different brands of cars to get rear hubs that are not entirely accurate. It can cause weird handling problems. Probably the best bet is to use alloy rear hubs as they are more accurate. (well most of the time anyway)

The pivot blocks can also move slightly, (not sure how much side to side never checked) but I know when my suspension arm had play I loosened the block and pushed it towards the car while tightening and it had no play any more.

Honestly, I thought the same way, but after doing it, I love it!! Everything fits 100% better then normal, Nothing has to hang of the chassis
I dont see any negatives other then shoe goo takes 24 hours plus to dry

Is this something Hara/Moore or any of the HB drivers is doing?All my HB cars have had BL speedos and either Spectrum receivers or the new Futaba 2.4 receivers.I see why you may resort to cutting the servo ears.I will do it if I have to but I see no real reason to do so.
