Niftech makes a little kit thing that lets you check a few different things on the front end but, I would say most people just eyeball it.

One of the things it points out is JUST how important it is to take the extra couple minutes when building your car to make sure that the adjustment direction (which way you "pull" your turnbuckle wrench to lengthen or shorten) is consistent on your camber turnbuckles and tie rods. I am AMAZED at the number of people who have these as mix-n-match.
Best bet to order or ask questions is to call. Ray and Julie are some of the nicest people in RC. If you're placing an order go ahead and buy some of their traction compound--it's the best stuff going right now and is non wintergreen based so it qualifies as "odor-free". Get two bottles because you'll wish you had more.
Browse their catalog--the stuff they have is AMAZING and every bit of it is top-shelf stuff (and, typically, priced accordingly).
The down side--you either pre-pay for your order or it gets sent COD. Kind of a pain, but worth it.

Another affordable way is to buy 2- 1' pcs of 1/8"id brass tubes from your
local hardware store. Take off your tires and slide the tubes on, turn on your radio & esc and adjust accordingly. Quick & easy but the niftech station is definately more accurate!!

Thanks for the help.
