Hi All

I am having trouble with my wheels on my Tiger 1 rubbing on the adjacent hub when they are carrying the weight of the tank. I have checked my angles and they seemed to be at 35 degrees. Have you guys come across this before? I am thinking of changing the angle of the axles up to give the wheels more clearance. Should I need to do this? The trouble with doing this is if I have to is that I finished the hull complete with camouflage for I knew it would be hard to do once the wheels were on the tank. I can't see any other way to stop the wheels from rubbing but to adjust the suspension. Have any of you had the same problem and what did you do about it?

Hi John

Changing the angle at which your suspension arms are set will have absolutely no effect at all. The distance between each axle will remain the same. Some slight rubbing will always occur as your tank runs over lumps and bumps. This is unavoidable.

Any chance of a photo or two, to illustrate the rubbing ?
