Just checked mine that I bought two or three months ago and found the same<br>
thing. I also noticed that the holes where the arms are inserted are not<br>
centered. This is probably what's causing the problem.<br>

> I checked mine last night and I found the same thing. Looseness and the<br>
tabs where not aligned. I was wondering why I was having a bit of a problem<br>
with the differential when I was setting up. I also noticed a slight snap<br>
in the setup and thought it was in my connectors being loose but it was the<br>
looseness of the assembled bellcrank. Know I know why. When you tighted the<br>
assembly the tabs can twist due to the slop. I too did the c/a trick and it<br>
is tight and square now.<br>
> BTW this was the black MK Bellcrank and I purchased it last June '02 from<br>
Central Hobbies. Definitely a Japanese product as you could barely<br>
understand the broken English.<br>
