VERY IMPORTANT
1. Mount the assembled left and right suspension
to chassis by installing the bottom mounting screws
in the order shown. Tighten the mounting screws
VERY GENTLY, and do not overtighten the screws.
2. Fully tighten the screws in exactly the same
order as you installed them.
The front suspension is
manufactured from composite
material which may slightly
move or bend when the
mounting screws are tightened.
As such it is extremely important
to follow these steps to ensure
tweak-free mounting.

Loosen all M3x4 setscrews so you
can easily remove the pins.
Make sure that arm moves freely.
INITIAL SETTING
After inserting clips, carefully tighten all M3x4
setscrews so the pins will not move. Do not
overtighten or you may strip the plastic.
If the arm does not have
enough play, remove the
clips and thin the clips
slightly with sandpaper.
The arms must have free
movement and not bind.

The axle must have a VERY small amount of
sideplay. If there is no side play, the axle may bind
in the ball-bearings and damage the bearings.
Use these Ride Height
Adjusters for initial assembly.
Use additional shims to widen the rear
track-width. Use the same shims on both sides.
For initial assembly use 6.4x8.4x1mm shims.

Orient the filled shock
vertically for several
