I bought the same Yeah Racing TT02 Tie Rod kit you linked too and its for a normal TT02, one with out the wide angle steering arms and the front drive shafts removed, with a normal turning radius the Yeah Racing TT02 tie rod would work fine

My TT02 has a increased steering angle and can not get the steering adjusted correctly, so its the length of the tie rod and the length of rod end or both that is wrong

i know, i was showing you cars that have similar angle mods for ideas to see how your geometry is not working and how to fix it. seems we agree your tie rods are too long.

sorry i haven't had much time to help recently, about to move to a new house and work has been busy too. hopefully that YEAH Racing RWD kit will come out soon and all your troubles would be solved! ;)
i looked and still nothing. seems like the lead time from "sneak peek" to production is about 5 months, looking at other youtube vids for the CC01 kit and now that's available. maybe 1 or 2 months to go for the TT02 RWD kit?
maybe their facebook page has more news...

I'm pissed off right now, I drove a 1 hour and 20 minutes both ways only, to be told they have no idea or could suggest a XXXXXXX thing, I left before, I lost my shit and end up punching somebody

So it was a complete waste of my time and money, back to square one and now really pissed off, cause the steering is still screwed

I finally have the 17.5T in and soldered up. Geared 47/82 and it rips pretty good. After a solid 5-8 minutes of making giant loops in the street, the motor was pretty cool so I'm thinking I can gear up and/or advance the timing on the motor a little.

Car is pretty bouncey in street. Not sure if its the street or need tuning on the shocks.

You may have done this already but.....

You could take all of the steering links off, then line everything up so that the wheels and everything point how you want them to when going straight, and then make links based off of that and then test it.

I'm still pissed off and not working on the TT02 right now, but have done some research online and found the Yeah Racing TT02 tie rod kit comes with 2 23mm tie rods for the steering arms

They might be too long, I will look for different tie rods, or I could cut them down, and I also think I need a hole closer too the steering knuckles for the steering tie rods

And another thing I noticed is that the new Yeah Racing Drift kit parts have a adjustable steering bridge on there wide angle steering arms, you can not purchase a separate adjustable steering bridge for the TT02

Maybe the lack of adjustability on the wide angle steering arms could also be part of my problem, and Yeah Racing corrected the problem with a adjustable steering bridge

I found a picture a Eagle Racing adjustable steering bridge so there is 2 company's using it

I don't think that is going to work cause of the diameter of the center of the turnbuckle it needs too be thicker than a 3mm tap, plus I only have a cordless drill, no drill press to center and accurately drill the hole correctly

I found these Overdose heavy duty 3mmx30mm turnbuckles with a hole in the center, they might work with what ever threaded rod will fit the hole to attach a ball end so every thing pivots

This is the last time I post here, every thing else is going to my TT02 post
