| binding issue
So i bought this steering system and it looks great but it binds up on the axle. It binds where it mounts to the axle then to the servo mount? i have my wraith lowered with the lowering kit that might be it? I am just wondering if this has happened to other people running a chassis mounted servo. I dont want to keep it at stock ride height because its way to high. Should i just return my steering set up and stay with axle mounted steering? This is the link to the steering system i bought. Chassis Mounted Steering Servo kit for Axial Wraith |

Maybe you need to remove one of the upper links. This is advised for the VP kit to stop binding.

i did i removed one and it still did, so I put it back in. Also the drag link is not hitting the links its hitting the top of the axle so i might try and bend it a little bit to where it follows the contour of the axle.

Maybe your CMS is back (towards) the receiver too far. My VP CMS is maybe about 1/2" from touching my electronics plate - which mounts at the same point the receiver box does. I'm not exactly sure how the RC4WD CMS mounts. With the combination of the ackerman plates on the C-hubs and if your CMS is mounted in the correct spot (not pushed back too far), the drag link should be out of the way enough to not hit the axle. Maybe post a picture of the issue so we can see what's exactly happening. |
