- The first leg of the "V" is about 5 mm and the angle is around 45 degrees:






- The main leaf is the same length than the H.L. one...I never had any snagging problems with my old panzer IV; except for a leaf falling off the post of the rear wheel and snagging on the track when I went backward...I modified the H.L. plastic suspension to remedy the problem:







- I used the return rollers as a reference when I installed the Asiatam suspension and noticed that the wheels were sitting too close from the hull...
Shimming the posts with plastic washers solved the problem for me...
I'm not the first one who had problems with the alignment of the Panzer IV suspension:http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-t...uspension.html
