but I noticed that the diffs are very tight to where they will almost not counter turn and actually turn my motor, is this something I can easily fix?

I am also gald I got a set of softer springs bc the suspension as it is right now is very stiff also.

I am happy though, because I know this car has some great potential.

hey bud! to make the diff work better back out the screw that is in the center of the diff until it works the way you like it. oh yeah and lube that up to if you can. as for the springs, they are stiff cause they are new. break them in alittle and they will be gold

thanks, I will give it a try !

btw, can the front be lowered? I see the screws for the back, bt not the front...

there are holes in the front. you should have got 2 extra screws with your kit in a little bag maybe

but yes it can be lowered

your lower front a-arms dont have holes in them towards the rear? may just be hard to see.

i still need to find one, but i dont have my 1:1 car today

it is probably for the best... so i dont spend so much money

Profoxcg · #9 11-06-2003, 02:35 PM

that is true, but I work 40 hard hours per week plus school so I spoil myself after my bills are covered !

..but yes.. sometimes its best not to have web access or a 1:1 car, lol
