1. Is it normal for the rear springs to rub on the cylinder? I'm using new springs and the shock bodies don't appear particularly worn. The fronts are super smooth - I have seen it before on mine but never caused a problem.

2. What's the easiest way to adjust the slipper when assembled? There's not much room in there! I use pliers or a small smaller and then roll the car.

3. There's quite a bit of lateral weight imbalance e.g. on the right there's the motor, receiver and transponder (196g) and on the left there's the servo and speed controller (86g) That's 110g difference. I realise this is a rough figure because I haven't considered the distances from the centre line. I'm tempted to add a block of brass by the speed controller. Guess this depends on your electrics, never had any imbalance problems on mine, but never weighed it.

4. Are the 3-Racing turnbuckle mounts (link below) a direct replacement or are different spacers needed on the camber links? I believe they are the same, Kev Lee (inside line also sells them and uses them in his own car so would know for certain.)
