tsk........tsk.......tsk........
this is making me worried...... my Copperhead is on its way and I hope it will not be a dissapointment.
mine had about an inch of play side to side. after moving the links to the bottom of the skid plate i got it to about a 1/4 inch of play,but im thinking of moving it back to the top cause it really helped when i had it out in a comp...... the other thing i was was thinking of doing is make it so the rod ends are vertical like the upper links with a little mod to the lower main plate, i have already tried to do the upper and lower links at the same point like on a 1:1 scale but it only had a side to side movement so dont waste your time trying it out.... i'll let you know what works out when i try a true 3 link style with it...........PS....... move the front shocks to the inside of the upper mounting holes and the tires dont rub so much, i use the lowest hole and its better for my driving............
