I install last night the new servo saver arm with the newer 2 piece diff adjuster for the front Ball Diff and it hits the left bulkhead, so I had to go back installing the original servo saver arm.
I am using the rod linkage in top with the original servo saver; definitely this will not work because it will hit the ball diff (with 2 piece adjuster install), so I did change this but could not solve the problem with the left bulkhead.
Any recommendation how to solve this?

Or the button head from the screw that hit the lower part of left bulkhead?
Check Pyramid link, I did use 5mm baljoint+ball end from my T1FK from servo saver arm to knuckle. But for arm that goes to servo Im still using 6mm one.

I think a simple reduction in the Tx setting on the steering throw will solve the problem.

If you put both cars on the tweak station, you will notice that the 705 has a shorter wheelbase compared relatively to the 710.

There you go. I thought it was more than 2 mm... I think my eyes are playing tricks on me !

When the need arises, then upgrade or hop up. It can be a very expensive exercise if you were to get everything at one go.
Just make sure the car is built correctly. I personally think you should concentrate on the clutch and diff building.

If you go for a MS edition or more you will have to pay just as much as for the NovaMega's.

Julius Kollf his pitman learned me all the tricks to do it the right way.

Living in Mordor is not as good I can tell you.
Is Julius still around? I thought he was still somewhere holidaying...
