Anyone else noticed this?

I can see it putting a bit of stress on the servo or servo horn when I turn it side to side. However there wouldn't be much pressure on them when driving it since the truck would be in the air to get this rubbing effect (plus how often do you turn the wheels when your flying in the air off a jump!)
I seen this also and wondered if i needed to add limiters to them.

Hey guys, just have a few quick questions about the truck, hope you don't mind answering

Anyways, i just finished building the belt drive assembly on the truck, everything looks good, correct, but for some reason the belt is quite tight, it makes the entire drive line quite resistant to turn. I have yet to even adjust the belt tensioners because it is tight enough without them, even a little too tight.I have the standard pulleys on it now ( 20 tooth rear and front), I checked the diffs to make sure they werent binding, they are all fine, and as it sits i doubt, with wheels on it, i could roll it more then a few feet ( porbably less) before it would stop itself. Should this problem be fixed when the belt is broken in? The only other thing i could see that could be causing the problem is that the pulleys are not in line with each other, but they look to be fine as well.

Also, there seems to be something catching on the top of the steering assembly underneath the bulk head, in near the servo. It doesnt completely stop it, but every time I move the front knuckles back and forth, it catches on something. Any ideas what this is?

Finally, as i was assembling the slipper, there were two different inner disks, the ones that fit into the rear pulley, what is the difference? or is it just a spare?

Thanks guys.

Viper, is the truck completly built? My steering rubbed untill I got all the front end put together and bolted down, then it went away. The steering assembly is very close but nothing rubs on mine.

The belt will feel real tight untill it's run a little, I spent a good bit of time trying to find something wrong with mine but it just needed to be run a little. I was using the stock tensioner settings, which I think you can run a little looser but I would start there and get things broke in first.

Driveline is pretty tight. It should loosen up after a few packs. I tossed a titan 550 in maine and ran it for 1hr at 4v off my charger to break stuff in (no wheels on it).
For the steering...ya, I have seen a few that the rack rubs the belt gaurd. Just bust out the dremel, it doesn't take much.

Lol, the real truck class names might have changed, but I've never seen any one call them anything other then corr. So it's just natural for me to call them corr trucks.

I'll cut you some slack on this one, I still find myself using the term "Busch Series"

I found out what was catching on the steering, one of the ballstuds for the steering linkage was sticking out a tiny bit, so i just backed it off alittle and its fine now.

And thats good news, i figured that the belt had to just be broke in a bit first, I was just worried i put something together wrong, and would have to tear it all apart again .

Anyways thanks alot guys!

Default Wheel nuts

Can someone refer me to the Traxxas wheel nut part number that's compatible for this truck, so I don't have to search through 90 pages of posts please.

I noticed the same thing during the build, but after adjusting the camber in the front the steering arms don't hit the a-arms left/right.

I think someone else stated that they needed to ad some limiters to solve this
