looking at the picture your tanks are sat too high on the suspension you will need to adjust the spring to lower the hull

Hi Blake first up many thanks for the compliments its very much appreciated
for the upper hull it uses the asiatam bracket at the front and ive cut out the disc with the star shaped knob on (not sure on the real name

)
and put a screw in that held in place with resin and finished with plasti-card this will then screw into a bracket inside holding the 2 together think ive put pics up of it if not will get some
the ride height is too high and as rivet mentioned will need to adjust it and from what ive seen its going to be a complete lower hull strip down so will do it just before painting
the rear hatches were cut out using the "Thread saw" method quite easy really and rivet tails used for the hinges and plasti-card tubing to hold it together so they are usable
the gearbox mounting plate was a little issue and i thought it was the asiatam boxes that ive fitted but it seems as if its a common issue (easily fixed though)
you carry on with the questions blake if i can help i will
Regards Rob
