I have the exact same problem. I just finished building the car and through building it i noticed the bottom deck is tweak. Wobble side to side when on a flat surface. Ive over looked everything so I don't know what the issue is. Out of 6 other high end cars Ive built/driven, I've never had one like this out of the box

Any ideas?

Take the tires off... put the chassis on a flat surface.. loosen ALL the screws on the top deck and shock tower mounts. While holding the chassis down flat on the surface from the top. Start tightening all the screws down.. in an X-pattern from front to back to front, etc... That should get rid of your tweak.

Did you check to see if all the screws are counter sunk completely? That could cause the wobble side to side. I know I actually need to counter sink my screws a little more than what the factory did.

1 of the kits had unthreaded parts. He bought both and they are getting parts to fix second kit. Which John already owns.

Has anyone else had this and did you contact AE for a replacement??
I think some people are misunderstanding; if it's doing this with just the chassis (no other parts attached) then its nothing to do with how the car was built, the chassis must be faulty.

I'll be sure to check mine carefully when it arrives...

hi all, I bought my TC6 on Tower H. and when he came to my home in Spain, the first thing I did was check everything right and get the mount ..... not a single failure in any part ..... in fact already have shot at least 18 batteries ...... a luxury to have this model ......

greetings from Spain to all

The first thing I checked was the bulk heads and the chassis on a flat surface with no parts attached.
This is the first time I've built a TC kit and found a tweaked chassis, I'm a bit disappointed.
Can anyone tell me if associated is likely to send me a replacement for this faulty main chassis? I've emailed them with my receipt and still waiting on a reply.

check that the motor mount brace (31313) lines up with the chassis hole, i had to sand about 1mm to get it to line up.
that could be the cause of your tweek.
