Its all made from bronze rod so it's alot stronger than it looks!

conception date
 

haow long ago did you come up with the idea. your right great minds do think alike. any other ideas?

Looks good."thumbsup"
I have something similar(kinda) but used the original plastic junk. Way more clearance and a pretty decent upgrade. I was gonna go BTA but this should do it for a while.

I'm trying to remember now... All I can say is that I did it when I got my knuckles and hubs, which I believe was in... September?:?

Cool idea, looks like a good alternative to bta steering.

thats awesome. i have a bent link between my spindles now to clear the axle housing. i will try this mod also.

It is a great alternative to a bta setup, it's easy to make and you don't need to shave your knuckles.

Nice

I have the bta kit but this looks better

thats funny. i just made mine like that today. should work fine.

You guys inspired me, plus I was tired of having the drag link catch on everything...

This mod was a lot easier to do that I thought it would be. I cut a servo link in half and cut down the two halfs to 14mm. I tapped the side that was not threaded then bolted everything up. To make it work I had to put bent ball-joints on each end of the servo link.

It isn't as trick as AlphQup's, but I think it will do the job...

What length rod are you using when you bend them? Are you using a tubing bender?

very nice guys all look good"thumbsup"

For my links I just put em in a vice and bent them by hand being careful to line everything up and get it all symmetrical, but if your using a tube I would go for a bender or make a block jig.

I was sure that others had done this and now I know.Looking good.I ran this setup all last year and now have finally finished what I had thought about for to long.I really like my frt tierod setup but did not like the steering link from the servo.I had looked at how the BTA setups had the servo backwards and thought that would be great.So here is my Daughters new steering setup on her SWX.She is running stock so no dig.So steering angle is of utmost importance.:)

looks good!
