Got some rod and already had traxxas rod ends on hand. Turned out to be more work then I thought. Rod is 3/16 and way stiff compared to stock. Looking forward to busting knuckles now. Last edited by evan03; 01-19-2013 at 07:02 PM. |

Nice work on making your own stuff. Next, you should get a slightly longer servo horn and run that drag link straight (parallel to the tie rod). You'll end up with more steering throw. |

Either you are using a Go-Pro to take the pics and video or you have some serious toe-out issues, lol.

Thanks Go pro all the time. Tires as is are just about to touch the control arm at full lock. Longer servo arm puts more force on the servo. I'm not running the strongest servo out there. |
