I have a problem that i cant get my head around. Replaced my diff mounts with Hobbytek alloy diffmounts. Replaced the 32mm turnbuckles with 39mm to stop them pulling out of the roses. Now i find that my plastic rose joints ( the ones closest to the engine) are rubbing against my diff mounts??????

I think i have the geometry ok. The only way i can see of curing this is to toe in the rear wheels more. This seems mad, as this will cut the tyres out im sure!

What am i doing wrong??? Tried the red ones and black ones. No difference. Have steel roses coming. Please help me!!!!!!

Cheers All

Will try to get some pics. Is it unusual this problem?????? I think they are rubbing against the diff mounts when the suspension move. This then causes pressure in the wrong places for them and they pop off after a while.
 
I would like to add that i have also fitted raised rear hubs. Lifting the top arm out of the way of the spur gear
