I think that thing is big enough to be the whole chassis.

with the short throw of it it would be hard to get it to steer realy far unless you came up with some sort of progressive linkage, or something clever. It is very impressive how strong they are though, i know people who cant lift that much weight. They dont look too big, but not small thats for sure.

but with 1600 oz/in of torque you could simply drill a new link hole in the knuckle closer to the kingpin to equalize the throw

you could also use an off set pitman transfer

This will help my MRC get a little more weight over the front wheels.

Uh,,will a 5" servo even fit between the front wheels,,now you could do a 1:4 overdrive and replace the tranny/motor with a rx driven set up,,then just run the links from the servo case to the axles,,you wouldnt even need a chassis

that big one would make a hella winch servo tho
