Post subject: | Caution!!! re: removing bulkhead screws for more flex.. |
If you remove the screws from the rear of the front bulkheads, it makes it very easy to bend the bulkhead... I never tried this, but one of the local fast guys did, after the first night he checked his car to find one of the bulkheads was bent between the middle and the rear. The front arm mounts at the rear of the bulkhead, giving an impact with the wheel alot of leverage against the bulkhead. If you never hit anything... go right ahead... If you aren't one of those people... (like me) don't do this unless you have money to burn... |

I've had to run my car like this the last 3 weeks since a tiny bit of screw is lodged in the rear part of my right front bulkhead. I have a new one on the way though. I'm running the XRC and the added chassis stiffness may be whats been keeping mine from bending. |
