what does all the chassis pros (andy/talon etc) think do i need to worry about an extra 2mm from br12 to br10? im thinking as long as its straight and true 2mm longer in the wheel base is F all

i cant work out if the prevous builder knew he went wrong at the start why did he carry on with all the other stuff? i could almost see it by eye

Hi Baz,

the extra 2mm between BR10 & BR12 is not a major worry, as you will still be attaching the rear suspension brackets with the book spec measurements anyway.
I,d be more concerned of what you have said about the front frame measurements, tho i,m not sure exactly sure how you mean in your description.
Is it possible to remove the front frame totally & remake it? are the BR1 & BR2 rails correctly positioned & also TR1 & TR2 ? if they are then maybe the original builder has just got the front frame built wrong ( its a tricky blighter ) but causes major issues if its wrong.

I could send you a build table template to help check the bottom rail positions?

cheers
