Is it possible to mount one like a 1:1 steering box with a drag link?

As of right now it looks like it going to be about $25. Im going to work on it this weekend.

Looks like a great project so far, keep up the good work! As for the battery placement issue, how about running the pack sideways across the chassis? I have a few trucks set up that way, and it seems to work well. It gets the weight more centered and balanced between the axles, just a thought...

that won't be a problem for me I already run an axle mounted servo

randy1 · 10-06-2008, 08:32 PM

i also run a mout for the servo up front wont be a brob here nether

KevenP · 10-06-2008, 08:45 PM

If you can, space the servo down about a quarter of an inch, put a quarter inch spacer between the drag link and the servo arm and make a longer drag link that connects to steering knuckle and put a quarter inch spacer between them. That should help correct some of your extreme angle.
Outstanding looking frame!

Bestdallasfan6 · 10-07-2008, 10:10 AM

Yehp looking good, cant wait to get one!
