I bought the steering assembly. Am planning on installing it when kit arrives. I looked on ebay under completed sales and saw quite a few that had sold. Knowing this I "ASSUMED" it was a good upgrade or a needed one. Since I will be assembling from new I figured now was the time to put the good stuff in.

Bought the anti thread steel servo arm with aluminium servo horn and gun metal grey steering rack from GPM and yes immediately you will notice better steering control. Way less slop. Also upgraded my servo. Its ridiculous they sell a 700 dollar rig with that weak ass servo. do this too if you already havent..

The GPM stuff looks exactly like the DHawk stuff and quite a few of us are running the DHawk steering rack and bell cranks without issue. I also have the DHawk rear lower trailing arms.

I put the order in last night and it says I will get it mid March so I guess we will see! For now the yeti is down if it takes that long :(

I orderd and rcvd a but load of aluminum dhawk and GPM parts. I too am waiting for the kit..

Steering bellcranks, mount, and hinge pins
Servo arm and turnbuckle
Upper and lower link mounts
Upper shock mounts
Motor mount, spur plate, spur cover
Upper and lower skid plate
Body post mount
Front shock tower

I also ordered some fast eddy bearings to install from the get go. Been seeing bearing failures a lot in this forum.
Sitting here drooling over these parts is making waiting for the kit real difficult.
