Insert a 2.5mm hex wrench into the ends of the steering block pivot balls. Thread the
two pivot balls into the arms just enough so they are secured by a few threads. The
holes in the arms are pre-tapped for easy installation. Turn each pivot ball only 1-2
turns at a time. Position the drive shaft's plastic cap in the differential outdrive slot.
Continue threading in the pivot balls until there is a gap between the upper and lower
portions of the steering block and the ends of the suspension arms, as shown in the
detail illustration.
The front suspension is complete.
