Rockers
Hi All,
Another rocker question for the group.
The tires are hitting the rockers even though the rockers as far back as possible and the front suspension as far forward as possible. I've trimmed a little here and there hoping to get them to go back. I've seen some cut the front lip off the rockers getting them to move backward. Moving backwards would also help line up the front clip too as seen in the attached picture. Before I go any further trimming I wanted to get yall's thoughts.
Also, could it be possible the rockers are backwards? As you know the rocker ends are different with one end having more slope and the other end being more square. Hope that makes sense? When I got the car as a roller from RCR the rockers were attached so the sloped end was at the front and the square end at the back.. Should the square end be at the front?
I can't remember the tire size but they don't look oversized.
Attached is a picture showing the tire hitting the rocker. There is also a mark on the rocker where the front clip rests on the rocker. Rocker needs to go back about 10-15mm.
The next picture shows the lower part of the rocker inserted into the chassis slot. I got this from Adam H's build thread. This works well and protects the lower portion of the rocker. You can also see in this picture the front lip on that rocker is up against the chassis sponson and can't go back any further which is my problem.
Thank you!
Louis
