+1 Front diff should be a little tighter than the rear. Mine was slipping just a touch after my last rebuild and it wasn't pretty. I adjusted it properly and checked for slip. My son's car was rubbing the lower shock mounting bolt at full lock on his TC3 because of the rim offset. I switched to the inside hole on the arm, put a rear shock tower brace on the front and used the body post mounting hole for the upper shock mount. It gave the desired shock angle the car needed.
