| Newbie steering ?
Making some suspension links and wanted to make the steering link also but I can't find the curved end pieces for the rod. You can buy the Axail kit with everything but all I need are the ends anyone know what ends I can use?

| Re: Newbie steering ? Any rod ends will work, The revo ones are ncie because they come with steel pivots. If you need them bent, a lighter and 2 pairs of pliers will get them bent.

I just made up a new steering linkage last night to accommodate my new VP knuckles and chubs. i used Traxxas 5347 ends, 8-32 threaded rod from Home Depot and some 1/4 brake line. Even with a little more steering travel I didn't have to bend the ends or steering linkage to work.
