Default Servo/ESC installed [pics]

I've worked hard on this for the last two night and I'm happy to say that I'm almost finished. I just need to cut a few more post out of the interior so I can get the body mounted again.

I used this thread (thanks a lot Jason ):
My steering setup

I started off by disassembling everything:


I then built my servo mount:





And connected the tie rods using the factory ends and some other stuff I had lying around:



Check out the old school car I robbed the electonics from:



Installed:


I think I will probably need a stronger servo, but I'm going to try this one out for now.

Here is a quick pic of the crawler from the last run I did.....before I installed this stuff:

It's a futaba FP-S148. It was one that I just had sitting in my old r/c car box. I don't think it has enough torque though.....so, I'll be searching for another one. I think I read a couple of old threads that had good recommendations.
