Did you sleeve the AE steering knuckles with brass?[/QUOTE]


All I did was use the B4 hinge pins and dril out the caster blocks. Then used a small screw and drilled a hole right in the middle of the knuckles to hold the pin in. This is the same screw that is used on the bottom of the B4 caster block. I found this on the SVR thread here on rctech. Just completed this last night and works awesome with 0 slop. I also installed the Jconcepts axles as it does not need the stuipd C clip's like the stock B4 setup.

I race at Adams Creek in Tulsa, Ok. If I remember correctly I think you have come up to Adams a few times from Dallas. Not sure you remember but I had the SVR with the British flag painted on it.
