Default over the top? steering above the axle! it works

so i got real tired of my front steer tie rod hanging up or preventing me from gettin the tire on the rock...thought about behind the axle.............not easy....not in front...nor behind
OVER THE TOP (revo link w/2 bends did the ticket) also note: 333oz servo used...no problems in 2 comps

sorry thats a T-Maxx pn 5143..it was just a little short so there is 1 JATO rod end on left side as viewed in pic...just make sure that bends are wider than posts to allow movement

Nice job, looks like it works really well.
Might have to try to do something like this also. I hate when the linkages get hung up trying to get over something.

Thanks for the proof in the vid man. I've been working my brain forever trying something BTA mainly...never thought to think this way.

Good job. I have a few ideas to improve on it possibly...If things go right I'll post my ideas...otherwise it'll look just like this.
