hi guys and girls. hoping you can help out a newbie in the UK. i have just got my first serious 1/10 r/c xray fk04. its used, but in pretty good condition. my problem is this: having just put my first set of wheels on the rolling chassis i find that the bottom suspension arm trailing edge rubs on the inside of the wheel.  is this because i have no servo in place as yet? or, should the wheels be something other than standard offset?  hoping you guy can help me out!! thanks in advance!!

Off the top of my head I can't think of how the arm itself would be rubbing (if you mean on the front)....unless your C-hubs are installed on the wrong side...(they should tild toward the back of the car..not the front) If you are running 28mm foams, then you will have to trim the shock mount location on the rear arms to allow proper clearance for the wheel when running the outside shock mount hole... |

Also check your camber settings. You may have positive camber instead of negative camber and you could get this problem. |

hi guys! sorry i did not make myself too clear in my first post.  i have 24mm rims with shu mini pins. the rubbing to inside of wheels occurs at extremes of lock right and left.  the rims i have are a multi spoke type. if i turn the wheel i can feel the trailing edge of the arms catching on the inside of the spokes.
hope you guys can help and thanx for the rapid replies. |

You could either get different rims, put a washer in between the rim and the hex or file a bit of the arm. Is the rim only just rubbing or does the it stop the wheel moving completely? |
