Default Steering problem

I have a timber Wolf and just moved the steering servo up to the frame. I am using a Hitec HS7954 server and a arm with bent metal rod ends. Steering to the left is not bad but to the right, the nose of the truck lifts till the shocks are fully extended.

I think a High Steer Knuckle would help but I don't seem to be able to find them for the T-Rex 60s. I may see if I can modify a set of Axial's High Steer Knuckles, but not sure how that will work. Going to aluminum knuckles would probably help as the knuckles seem to flex a lot on top of the bolt I am using to secure it.

Any other ideas of experience with this?

Forgot the Pics.

You need to install a Panhard bar to locate the axle. Otherwise your continue to have this issue. The knuckles will help with strength but do nothing in solving the problem. I'll see if I can find a picture of one that I have installed on mine.
