The wishbones should move while the pins generally don't rotate. If yours is binding then maybe clean up the side faces of the plastic wishbone. Sometimes you can get a small step on the mould split line that cleans up with a needle file.
You can play with droop a few ways - most ppl leave it alone, but if you want then you can wind the ball joints more/less onto the shaft. You can also add spacers under the piston but that means that the shocks need to be rebuilt each time you change the droop.
The best way I've found is to use carbon spacers under the rear shock tower mounts. You need to get the latest aluminium upper housing for that but they are a worthwhile upgrade as they also allow you to fit shocks on the rear.

Hi Wingers,
I had already filed out the rear arms, I think one of the pillowballs was gripping a bit too tight, I took it apart again and popped the pillowballs into the hangers first then polished the hingepins (Tessman style) and now its silky smooth both sides.
I will run the car stock and see where its at, need to get used to it first before I start tinkering I think.
The kit is all built now, just need to install the electrics and paint the shell before Tuesday which will be a test as off racing all this weekend and dont get a lot of time in the evenings at home these days.
