i thought i did see a gap last night just under the camber link, but after looking again today i cant see a gap at all anywhere.

during assembly ..


I did come across a crushed ball stud in the first packet i opened for the build... had to raid my parts bin.
on the gearbox gap issue and tight spot,
remove the slipper assembly and back of the three screws that hold the gearbox half's together, leave them loose and remount the gearbox top on the chassis again tighten it down then re tighten the three screws, taken care not to over tighten them, and re assemble the slipper layshaft assembly and tight spot should be gone and gap also,if theres still a small tight spot run it gently around for 5 10 mins it will go free,
