Default Droop

Am I correct in saying I may have to change the front gearbox top case if the droop isnt the same both sides? The shocks look to be uneaven in length, but if I take them off the car and measure them, they are the same length. I have done a small amount of research into this and it seems that some case tops are not as accurate as they could be in the mouldings?
As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

I have checked the length of the shocks mate, yeah. The rockers look uneven with the shocks removed. And one front wishbone is slightly lower than the other?

Hi,

Yes, unfortunately due to difficiencies in the manufacturing process of the front gearbox top when the car was still produced by TTech, many of the gearbox tops were drilled inaccurately and therefore uneven droop occurs. If you get in touch with Xtreme RC via telephone or email, Lewis will ask for you to send in your shoddy gearbox top and replace it with an accurately drilled piece, as he now uses appropriate methods to get the gearbox top drilled perfectly.

Apologies for this issue, hope you get it resolved to your satisfaction

Tom
