wheel alignment

[stevo1969]

Hi everyone, I have a TBII std version, just wondering how to set up the front and rear alignment. So far i have left everything as I got it from PSR in OZ, I had a misshap over the weekend and had to do a bit of a dodgy repair.

I've left mine at stock set up so far. How bad was the crash?

Generally, you can adjust the alignment as the pictures show.

But now as there is some quetion on the arm, our engineer suggest that you can first adjust the other side wheel, then take a measure of the distance, in order to adjust the problem side, at last settle the dedentition using the screw.

not bad at all, but the damage may have been done from other outings and this little jump ended it for the thread.

thanks Ethan, but what are the angles best suited to set them at, camber +/- or 0 and the same with the toe, in or out or zero.
thanks

Camber: -2

Toe: 0 generally
if want steering keenly, out 1~2 is ok

Setting have to do with where you drive and your driving style. Cannot say on a 4 wheel drive large scale buggy as I do not have one YET but hopefully soon. On my 1/8 buggies it all depended on the track. I am mostly a race. On the front I all ways ran toe out and on the rear toe in. Here is a very good link on car handling and what affect each adjustment has.

That one is ripped! If you screw it back in it will fall out at the next ride! Use super glue for now.

Oops sorry, you already fixed it...
