Ah you must mean this ;) will look at a alternative saddle chassis if the car needs it.

The standard front shock tower has the ball joint is standing up, however with your tower the ball joint is sideways. Will this or does this have an effect on handling?

There is more chance of the ballcups ballstuds binding, i plan to use some longer out ballstuds with some shims so the angle is reduced and this will reduce any binding.

The plus side is you have a far great range of adjust this way around.

I see, what about using some of the cougar angled ball cups?

what about the ones used for the rear links on the 210

Edit; scrap that idea they go the wrong way!

Hi Chaps,

Just re-igniting this thread as I am interested to hear who has gone MEX on their 210's? Whats the feedback for those who have AC'd up their Rango?

Cheers folks :thumbsup:

I love mine! I'm not a good enough driver to be able to tell you anything technical and I've only done a few laps with an alloy chassis anyway but it looks amazing... there are some pics of it in my profile! :thumbsup:
