Losi MRC Steering issue

[llinneman]

This may be normal and I may be paranoid, but, when I steer my new Losi MRC all the way in either direction, it makes the front end bounce. It seems to get better if I set the sterring rate back to the middle but then it doesn't turn well at all (not unlike a bus). Anyone else have this issue? Its most noticable if I turn the steering rate to the max and hold the truck in my hand while accelerating and turning all the way at the same time. The servo and axle vibrates real bad. I can;t tell if the axle is hitting something while the wheels are turned or what. Maybe this is just the way it is made and I am asking too much. Any ideas?? Thanks!!

it could be the dogbones are binding in the cups. it's not good for it but it's normal. if you really want to have that extra steering you can grind out the dogbone. just be careful. it won't be as strong that way.

I only had that issue when I changed my tires. They were overall a 1/2 inch taller and would hit the lower links at full steer.
