| looks a ton better. now that you've moved the servo to the chassis won't you need a panhard bar to keep the axle from pushing to the side? |

| ok so I have a problem now my steering is acting wired, it steers all the way over to the left and when i steer right it hardly turns at all. I have tried moving the linkage around but that didnt helped anything. I was thinking of changing my mount but i wanted to see what other people would have to say. any help would be appriciated. |

| check that the servo is centered and that the steering trim on your radio is centered also. |

| I'm glad that the inner part of this body, the interior and what-not is pretty soft, pliable plastic. I've been cutting it to bits! I just grab my heat gun - heat up the area and my exacto cuts through it like butter! woohoo!! I might actually be able to fit all my electronics under here somehow!!! lGonna be tight though. |
