Just started the build last night but i managed to do the front suspension only, will continue it tonight. Thanks..
Use Tamiya Grease to turn the pillow ( pivot ) ball easier.

I'm using MTX3 titanium, and could penetrate even deeper than in the photo.

Use Hudy Setup Tools to measure front width ( 199 mm ) and front camber.
