Throttle servo horn rubbing the body:
1) the correct neutral position of the throttle servo horn is one large tooth (horn to adapter) inward (towards brake throw) from centerd on the servo.
2) There is an adjuster on the end of the return spring on the pull rod, loosen the .050" set screw and move it all the way back against the ball end on the throttle pull rod.
3) Loosen the two adjuster collars on the end of the brake pull rods (nearest the silicone tubing) to allow for free play in the brakes linkage. Set the collars flush w/ the end of the rods.
4) With your radio on, and your throttle trim at zero, the throttle horn should be at 7 o'clock and 1 o'clock if you are looking straight down on the car and the car is facing away from you
5) set your dead band (free play in the throttle linkage) by adjusting the collar on the throttle pull-rod
6) adjust brake bias
7) set EPA so that ther is 2mm of travel left in the carb at full throttle and at full brake, the spring is not coil bound. If the spring is coil bound, readjust the brakes at the horn.
8) It will not rub the body now.

Droop Question
Hi
I can see that the 2.0 has new arms and towers F/R but the shocks are the same. The droop lengths are the same as the 1.0 on the set ups but does the 2.0 car have more actual droop in the arms compared to the 1.0?
Thanks in Advance

Still waiting for the UK arrival of the 2.0.................Hurry up otherwise santa will get there first!!!!!!!

center diff mount is minus the alum bearing retainer...and it looks somewhat beffier......the spring retainer's have been changed slightly to allow them to slide over the boots without tearing them to shreads.....and the shock cartriges ? you mean blatter's ? they might have made them a hair thicker to prevent them from splitting due to the cap being tightened too much.
