on my XR, BTA.. seems easiest. lol

on my Mini, OTA.. Bta is alittle tight for the 1.9ner. also, OTA seems to have less issues for me when i put it together.

Running the stock tie rod in a BTA setup with Vanquish high steer knuckles, and a home made 4-link plate/servo guard and mount. Works pretty good for me.




I really like the added usable approach angle, and I couldn't stand the abuse my Hitec servo was recieving in the stock location.

Doesn't stick above the tires much.


I do only get a couple degrees more steering than stock though, cause the dogbones aren't modded, and the tires are already into the links and shocks at full lock and full flex.
