I've seen many people go with a BTA setup with zero ackerman high steer knuckles with Jones'N BTA tie rod. I was wondering why Axial's BTA set costs $53 from TCS and it doesn't even include the clockable C's!

I think I'm better off buying Axial's clockable C's, VP Zero Ackerman knuckles, and then use the Jones'N BTA tie rod along with the metal bushings...and get the Axial CVD's.

Anyone have a cheaper solution like OTA on their AX10? My current tie rod is bent upward a bit to clear the front pumpkin at full lock with my dog bone setup and I am running a bit of toe out.

I've been running the axial BTA for a while now cuz I got it for a steal, but now im upgrading to zero ackerman. I'd say unless you can get a killer deal on the axial kit, go with the parts you listed.

I wouldn't waste any money on the axial bta. It is not a four link. It has a real purty tie rod, but I think you are better off doing like you said and go 0 ackerman
