before you try to drive your car, just take some time to take things apart, read up on your car and really learn whats what.

Re: Tires,Springs,andTierods

Grab the differential from your Evo chassis, get the superglue and drip some into the space between the big, toothed center gear, and the outdrive. Spin the differential a few times to get the glue spread out, and then just wait.

You know what, screw it, don't even lock your differential. Next you'll be asking how to unlock it afterwards...

Try drifting it with an AWD setup and open diffs.

Re: Tires,Springs,andTierods

Figure out something that will stop the inside gears of the differential from moving. You can use your brain. :wink:
