Default jato 3.3 breaks

tighten up your brakes... its the twist nob on the right of the truck (when looking at it from behind) by the fuel tank.. give it a few turns and you should be good!!

replace the spring with a piece of fuel or water tubing. it puts added pressure on the brake system, helping you stop better. [sm=thumbs_up.gif]

Here is my set up and my breaks lock up all the time. I placed the spring inside the fuel tubing, and got the aluminum break camber set from GH RACING. Check it out. Sorry if the images are not that great. Took them with a camera phone.
