| During my first attempt at making custom links, I have ran into a pretty bad snag. The original steering set-up wasn't cutting it for me. I had observed the mounts that have been made from all the rccrawler members. All the designs I had seen seem to work well with their rigs. My question, how should I go about mounting the servo to my rig (mounting it from the axle or upper links)? Here are some pics for a visual. I apologize for the sh!tty pics. laters! ![]() |

| TankFarmer, Notice that the link/shock mount has been rotated so that the double holes are behind the axle for shock and lower links to mount too. The single faces out from the front of the axle and is not used. |

| I drilled into my housing and put lock nuts on the inside of the axle to do this: ![]() ![]() ![]() It works awesome, and I even added a Futaba high torque servo today. The only thing I changed from these pics is that I Put the cross link on the bottom of the steering knuckles, and put the sevo link on the top, so it wasn't so close to the servo. Edit: I am trying to find a set of those "All-T's" But can't find any info on them. Who makes them? Does Tower Hobbies carry them? Any other place to get them?

| They are made by IMEX http://www.imexrc.com/, and Tower doesn't carry IMEX.... A Hobby shop can get them through another distributor, like HRP for example. |

| Hey Harley, You mind sending me another template of the servo mount? The last template you sent me was the clocked motor mount and not the servo mount. Thanks man! |
