OK stupid question but i guess if i dont ask i will not get an answer . How should i go about drilling the raised wheel with the Pro ??

After you drill the DFW hole, put a shim under the body, then clamp and drill the other side.

I personally would not do this. Putting in a shim to drill the non-DFW hole will cause the NFDW to touch. If you are running a good bend in the FDW, that should be enough.

Eh, that might not put the raised wheel hole where you want it.

Yeah, I think I was smoking something cheap when I made this suggestion. A shim under the body would lower the hole, not raise it. Hehe.

Though Kinser's idea of flipping the body could work.
 
Received my silver bullet pro in yesterday afternoon...excellent tool drilled two blocks last night in less 20 minutes tested on tuning board and perfect alignment. Thanks John for getting it in the mail so fast!
 
You don't need a lifted non dominant wheel!!! I drill my fronts at the same height.. Let your dominant axle raise the lifted wheel with the bend. I know that how most scout drill jigs are.. And is a good ideas for cars that can't run cant in SCOUTS.. But this is a different world from scout RACING.

New message from me (RxDan) messed up trying to add the quote to my reply (I apologize for my newbieness): Is a 1.5 degree cant in the DFW axle for steering enough ensure the NDFW stays off the ground? In the last Scout race, my son ran a 1.5 degree cant in the RFDFW bent axle steering wheel but the hole on left side was also drilled 1/16" higher to make it a raised wheel.

Probably not.
