| FUBARED Steering arm
I broke the piece that connect the steering motor to the pitman arm. Its that piece that has a pin in itand swivels when you turn. Tried to Krazy Glue it, but that just broke off again. When I e-mail Nylint, what piece should I tell? I don't want to replace the steering mech, just this arm. I think I must replace the part that takes the output of the steering box. If that makes any sense... And how do you guys remove these pins? Mine are stuck beyond belief... |

I use a pair of dikes to squeeze under the pin and the arm. This worked well for me and barely scraped the plastic.

End nipper dykes work the best, because they will pull it straight out

Neat. Got any pictures of these cool tools? And what part should I ask of Nylint? |

| what works best for me.....
is take a lighter,, heat up the plastic alil bit, then pull out the pin with dikes! i found that to be the best way to fix that problem! (be careful you dont melt the plastic) it only takes a lil bit of heat to get it out |

I broke the same piece (trying to upgrade the knuckle tower) but I'm just going to replace it with a screw in eye hook.
