Hey all:

The Salvinos JR '82 Buick is from the newer Monogram molds -- i.e. the rear corners of the chassis are rounded (not square like the first molds).

In this kit, the top of the spindles on the front lower arms piece don't mate with a hole in the upper A-arm like on the original (first) molds. There's just a tab or "stop" molded in the bottom of the upper A-arm.

Are you guys gluing the pin on the top of the front spindles to that "tab" or "stop" on the underside of the upper A-arm ?

Thanks!

Yes, I just superglue the front suspension piece in and place a dot of it on the tab part you're referring to. It holds just fine when done that way.
