XRAY - Model racing cars

Hi,

i know that to be able to use 28mm foam tyres on the fko5 that you need to remove that little bit of plastic on the rear arm my question is that if you take the little bit of plastic out of the rear arm when you come to mount the shocks wont you have to force the bottom of the shock on as the little screw you mount the it on is now further in the arm if this is the case wont this stop the shock from opperating properly

Hi Ben,

The shocks work fine with the plastic removed from the wishbones as in the manual. You should also do this to run 26mm rims, it stops any rubbage!

Hi James,

i know that they rub on the shocks for 26mm wheels as well because i was at don valley this sunday gone and the wheels was rubbing on my shocks i will give it ago and see how i get on with it anyway

Ben

Hi James,
