Hi, I have just completed stage 12 of Vetteel's RB7 and have a question re the rear wishbone and hub carrier assemblies. They both protrude from the chassis at a slight forward angle, when I would have expected them to be at 90 degrees to the chassis? The instruction drawings also show them coming out at an angle, and it appears when the wheels are fitted later, they will point slightly inwards rather than straight along the chassis line. Would appreaciate anybody elses thoughts / comments. Phil Confused

Thanks mrT for your reply. I have checked the link you provided and mine is no where as extreme as in photo's due to his mis assy. I am confident my assy is correct and I estimate my toe in is about 2 degrees and as other person advised in previous link may be normal for rear wheels. I have just simulated putting front wheel where back wheel will go and dosen't now notice that much due to small radius of wheel, so hopefully I'm ok. Phil
