Unfortunately WC, looks like its opposite day by you, unless you mean give your truck less toe out versus a little toe out as you said, you will not improve tracking / stability on the straights.

Or, as has been described here:

http://www.competitionx.com/rc-racin...oe-in-toe-out/

Front:
Adding Toe In will decrease steering into a corner, but add steering out of a corner during acceleration. Toe In will also stabilize the car under acceleration. Toe Out will increase steering into a corner, but cause the car to wander a little on the straights and in bumpy sections.
I am assuming that wander is NOT the effect that the OP desires which "giving your truck a little toe-out" will induce.

But regardless, for those curious which way to go if you feel both of us and the various guides on the net are full of it, give it a try both ways and report back ... Best way to confirm which is right is to give it a try and see.

Sorry to see you go Krio. You still going to be selling SC10 4x4 parts?

Cody - When you do your rebuild, are you using the black grease or similar around places where the oil can leak?
