the front wheels are too loose, so i took the little rubber tubes that came on the axles of the starter kit and slid them over the 2 ends of the tie rod. slide the knuckles onto the tie rod so the rubber goes through the eye. cut the rubber down to the length of the little peg on the tie rod so it doesnt hit the upper deck on the chassis. the rubber will tighten the knuckle's hold, preventing all that extra motion...car goes straighter, turns better. try it.

yeah i got the hpi micro rs4 wheel lock nuts and that helps quite a bit as well. I do want to try this out though.

I got rid of my rubber things...but i used some clear tape over the verticle "posts" of the tie rod...i think they are called the king pins...anyways it works really good now
