turnbuckle camber

I'm replacing the stock turnbuckles with a new set, RC10 Graphite. http://www.teamassociated.com/parts/details/6259/

I assembled them exactly as the manual said to. The car keeps spinning around in circles, cant keep it straight.

The front camber looks way off.

measured from center of ball sockets
front camber 2.05" or 52.40mm
steering 2.340" or 59.40mm
small steering 1.5' or 38.25mm

Any other secret measurements to try?

Also which steering block would be for the RC10 Graphite? These are both listed under RC10 classic on team associated website.

Hi ntstock,

The measurements from the manual are a starting point.

Do you have a camber gauge?

or

Can you post a pic of your car showing the steering and camber links?

Cheers, DaveM.

Hi ntstock93,

Sorry the pic is a bit fussy but,

6216 uses a Hex axle same as one at the top of the pic.

6221 also available in white 6225, uses a aluminum axle same as bottom of pic.

Cheers, Dave.
