| Post subject: | Play in Rear Lower Arms |
I am building my XB8TQ (first buggy build). I am assembling the rear suspension. I noticed that the lower arms have considerable play (1-2mm) front to back on the hinge pin even with the 2mm shim inserted. Is this normal? |

Did you fully tighten the arm mounts? You need to use the thickest spacer of the three different sizes (which may be 2mm, I've never checked before). |

I used 3mm of shims and it was a perfect fit. I think this has come up before and the correct amount of shims is actually 3mm rather than 2mm. |

Sand down a 3mm or put a 2mm in there with a sanded down 1mm. No matter what, sand down one of the clips to get them to fit. |

I just used a small metal washer between arm and other clips |
