| Hey i just finished my TQ3...much of my inspiration was from FritoBandito... THANKS MAN. All of the extra parts used were from Radio Shack Besides the extra REGULAR TQ radio that i robed the case and a pot from... List of features:
Here is a pic of the Rear steering trim pot and shut off switch A pic of the EPA 1k ohm pots mounted to bread board... i wish the rat shack had 2 k pots Mounting holes on a REGULAR tq radio case All wired up!!! GOD DAMN ITS LIKE A FREAKIN RATS NEST IN THERE WITH ALL THE WIRES!! Front view of push button switches, rear steer shut off and rear steer trimmer. And FRONT and REAR EPA pots mounted and closed up... left to right = skrewhole stock rear trimmer that was moved .. front left, front right, rear left, rear right, epa pots GOD DAMN i was like a woman stuffing her suitcase for a trip when i put the 2 halvs together... lol If you have any questions POST THEM!!!

| Real clean job man, it looks nice. What did you use to fill in the ugly hole left from the original switch? |

| ahhh my little secret on filling the hole. And thanks yes it is somewhat clean becides where i messed up on the hole for the rear steer trimmer......... LOL no, i actually replaced the original TQ3 case for one of my old TQ 2 channel radio cases.... THEY ARE EXACTLY THE same besides the fact that there is no hole for the third channel switch. Also in my old TQ 2 channel radio the hole wasnt drilled for the 3rd channel trim pot. |

| Looks really good. I like how clean it is. I like looking at everyone's custom ideas on this site, but I'm not really a fan of bootyfab. I love seeing stuff like this. I'll get back to you with questions once I get my truck up and running. -Jay |

| This is a diagram of what I am thinking of doing using 2k pots. I want them to be closer to the steering wheel because it will be less confusing for me |

| ya it would probably be alot easier to put them up there.... it was like fitting 10 dollars worth of grocieries in a 1 dollar sack when i put all the pots at the bottom... but i have it setup pretty easy.... Theres 2 groups of pot ( front and rear steering) so it goes from left to right on the picture: front steering left adj front steering right adj rear steering left adj rear steering right adj Hey you all have your own ideas so go for it... 2k pots would be WAY better... theres almost not enough adjustment for the front steering but it works like a charm. |

| nd4spdbh, thanks for posting the TQ3 mod! Did I label the switchs correctly in this photo? I didn't see the part # in post #1 for the rear steer trim. The part #s you listed were for the pots, rear steer switchs, rear steer on/off and the board. BTW is my wiring diagram correct? |

Yes you did lable the switches perfectly... The part i used for the rear steer trim was actually a trim pot out of an older TQ radio it is the same as the throttle and front steering trim pot... its a 100k ohm pot... Wiring diagram?... u mean the switches you labeled yes they are correct... i will work on a wiring diagram and will have it up soon. | |

| nd4spdbh, The info you listed stating: Theres 2 groups of pot ( front and rear steering) so it goes from left to right on the picture: front steering left adj front steering right adj rear steering left adj rear steering right adj ...are these basically "End Point Adjustments"? |
