That steering setup is awesome. Does it limit your turning radius at all, or is there enough room between everything to turn pretty tight? |

yer mate full lock both ways and gets more steering on the outer side tyres wen it turns because of how it is set up. i made the bta myself because i didnt want to buy one and there is so many people who have made their bta steering so i thought i would give it a go and it seems to be working like a dream cheers, Kurt |

Oh mine! That is saweet! Mini's look always good on a crawler, too bad you don't see 'em much. My friend once had WK, with mini and 4WS, brings memories. |

righto bit of a late update but at the last comp i won but it was one of the hardest comps i have driven in so far this year. in the end i snaped an axle and kept popping the front drive shaft but lucky for me they were all fixed easy and snaped the axle with 2 feet left of the last course but the truck handle very good for me so im happy now another up date, i have bta steering on the front of this truck but at the last comp showed me that the rear steer needs it to so im making a new steering and making bta for the rear as well. why you are ask?? well i drove into a tight spot at the last comp and i went to back out of it and couldnt because the rear steering arm wasnt letting it cause it was court ohh and i mounted the shell alot lower as well so thats another update. the mini shell is just something i sure in the local hobby shop and thought it would look alright on my truck so got it and love it thanks guys for the awesome comments. i will have updated pics soon as i can. Cheers, Kurt |
