| If you're going to put yourself up there with the late great Billy Mays, you have to at least put an oxiclean logo on your body! Can we expect a nice closeup video of it in action? Also, any notes on how much it affects the suspension travel/articulation (if any). My blah friday was just made better with your good friday! |

From initial testing it didn't limit the suspension at all. | |

Which clamp style servo horns fit on the axle mounted servo? I guess the short robitronics one is too short? My lhs cant get any robitronics ones so i was tring to find somthing else, seems the GH one is too long! |

| I run the 1" version which I think is the short version. I clearanced the back of the end of the horn just slightly so it doesn't touch the VP diff cover.

SO, this tie rod keeps the axle centered so when the servo actuates it actually turns the tires instead of flexing the axle. This defeats the purpose of a chassis mounted servo. I hate to be a party pooper but this is one of the most pointless products I've seen. No performance gain (in fact steering performance will be worse). Aesthetically unpleasing( the point of a chassis mounted servo is to make the truck look more scale and realistic). Now with this we have a clamp on the axle and an extra tie rod in the mix. The front axle is going to look like a jumbled mess of tie rods and aluminum parts. No thanks. |

| The rear steer is quite simple to mount up with just a plate. Check it out. First of its kind,"Top Secret BatMan" hybrid Wraith chassis with AX10 axles |

hmm looks cool, how much are these going to be? one question . . . . why the three link? why not four link with no panhard? the only reason you need a panhard is when using a 3 link setup so there is no axle walk. if you have a well triangulated 4-link you dont need a panhard anymore. . . . good job vp for taking a step backwards on the suspension evolution time line. my honcho has a custom built cms running 4-link and no panhard and i have absolutely no axle walk |
