I know there is a special tool for this but I don't have one. I picked up a redline Sandcrab at a school flea market yesterday for 60 cents. It is in really good shape with just a few very small nicks and minor toning. But the front wheels droop down pretty good. What's the trick for getting them back up where they belong? Thanks.

Olger (remember him?) used to post pics of that tool every once in a while.
I searched for about an hour on the web and found jack squat.(pinewood derby,castor and cambor alignment tool:freak: )
I would "try" (a very small) slotted screwdriver, with a thin cut,straight down the middle of the blade.
It might be small enough to slide between the chassis and wheel ,as the slot grabs the axle for bending.
maybe, lmk, if you try it and it works :cool:

Making or buying something like this will do the trick. The link is to a site where it can be bought, and there's an instructional video on that page too. Hope this helps.
